For the first time in the history of space research, a tourist, not a professional astronaut, made exit to open space. This was made possible by the innovative technologies of SpaceX, which continues to expand the limits of space access to ordinary people.
SpaceX spacecraft rose 1400 km above the ground. So far, people have not been flying for 50 years since Apollo.
At this height, the billionaire Jared Eisekman came through the hatch of the ship into an open space and stayed there for a few minutes.
The total duration of the trip is five days.
Iisekman did not tell how much he paid for his space tour, but the media consider it about hundreds of millions of dollars.
