WATCH: SpaceX crew completes first-ever civilian spacewalk

SpaceX made history early Thursday morning with the world’s first-ever civilian spacewalk.

It was initially expected to start just before 2:30 a.m. but began at about 5:58 a.m. ET. There was a webcast for the event approximately an hour prior.

The Polaris Dawn crew consists of four members, including billionaire tech CEO Jared Isaacman, SpaceX engineer Sarah Gillis, Scott “Kidd” Poteet and Anna Menon. All crew members were launched hundreds of miles above Earth, but only Isaacman and Gillis emerged from their capsule.
