At the end of last month, the Spacex developed the first polar-orbies’ mission, and simply shared some stunning (below) images that were caught during the epic journey.
Launched on March 31, on the board of the crew of the crew from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Fram2 became the first cut mission to flew into a real polar orbit, passing directly to both north and south poles.
The trip lasted just less than four days, with the spraying on the coast of California marking the first time for a cut -off mission to descend into the Pacific.
The Fram2 mission was funded by Chun Wang, a Chinese -born entrepreneur and adventurer from Malta. Wang flew along with Norwegian cinema Jannick Mikkelsen, Australian Polar Explorer Eric Philips and German Rabotics Engineer Rabea Rogge. No one was professional astronauts and was the first orbital experience for all of them.
During their mission, the crew conducted more than 20 scientific experiments, which, according to Spacex, were created “to help advance humanity’s skills to explore the long -term space”.
They involved taking the first X-ray in space to study the effects of microgravity on bone and muscle density.
They also participated in studies of exercises aimed at preserving muscle and skeletal mass while in microgravity, and observed aurora and atmospheric phenomena from their unique point of advantage.
While in orbit, Wang posted regular posts on social media, including one revealing how the crew needed time to adapt to off -earth conditions.
“The first hours in microgravites were not exactly comfortable,” Wang wrote. “Space illness struck all of us – we felt annoying and ended up vomiting several times. Feeling different from moving in a car or in the sea. You can still read in your iPad without making it worse. But even a small sip of water could disturb your stomach and cause vomiting …
Despite the initial embarrassment, the mission was considered a success and represented a step forward in exploring the human and private space of human space.
And if you were wondering, the name “Fram2” honors the legacy of Fram Norwegian polar Research, which was the first ship to finish expeditions to both Northern and South Poles more than 100 years ago.
