Social media users SLAM 'disappointing' Polaris Dawn spacewalk and blast 'why are you climbing back down' after civilian crew don't fully exit their capsule.
At 11:12 BST yesterday morning , the four astronauts aboard the SpaceX Dragon capsule donned their suits and officially began the first ever private spacewalks.
But while some have been awed by the images of billionaire Jared Isaacman emerging from the capsule, not everybody was so impressed.
Unlike the ISS , the Polaris Dawn crew faced intense time pressure due to limited air supplies.
The Dragon capsule does not have an airlock, all the air in the capsule had to be vented down to vacuum.
This meant that Isaacman and Gillis only had a limited window to get out of the capsule, test the suit's mobility and get back inside.
