The spacewalk, the riskiest part of the five-day Polaris Dawn mission, kicked off at 6:12 a.m. ET when oxygen started flowing into the astronauts’ spacesuits. Only two of the four crew members actually exited the vehicle, but all four had to don the new SpaceX-made suits because the Dragon capsule doesn’t have an airlock. That meant the entire spacecraft had to be depressurized.
