Jared Isaacman completes first private spacewalk with Space X | BBC News

Billionaire Jared Isaacman and engineer Sarah Gillis have become the first non-professional crew to perform one of the riskiest manoeuvres in space – a spacewalk.

The pair stepped out of the SpaceX spacecraft around 15 minutes apart, starting at 11:52BST, wearing specially-designed suits.

It was commercially funded by Mr Isaacman. Before, only astronauts with government-funded space agencies had done a spacewalk.
