  1. It’s hard to make a good spacesuit. Seems like a great start.

  2. This guy who's doing most of the talking is totally clueless. One example is resources on the moon would only be used on the moon because even if there were ready gold bars just laying on the surface of the moon, it would cost more to just pick them up and return them to earth then the value of the gold! SpaceX won those contracts from NASA from multiple bidders because their price was less then half of what the other wanted. Take Boeing for example that received almost 2X for the development of starliner and because of all the delays/issue with the craft has put in over a billion extra to redo previous failed test on the fixed price contract from NASA that's milestone based. Also many other point he brought up regarding SpaceX are totally made up BS…

  3. Why do the movements look so "artificial" and robotic? And why are there such long pauses after now and then? As if the guy just froze and stayed absolutely still. Where's the camera mounted on the capsule? Seems a tad away from the capsule instead of on the capsule. I don't know, this looks to me more fake than the Apollo moon landing…..lol.

  4. I got a billion dollars. I got a couple of choices:

    A. Help 5000 students graduate college
    B. Buy truckloads of medicine for children's hospitals across the US
    C. Become an investor for small and medium family businesses and start ups
    D. Spacewalk for clout

    I'll choose D.

    – Top 0.01% people

  5. Decadence extreme

  6. I stopped believing in Santa when I was a kid. I hope they don't drown.

  7. Bloody waste of money. The billions could had been used for medical research.

  8. Hope they do not get left in space for months? Being stranded for months? Oh no!

  9. And it's sad that the man behind this supports Mr Trump😂

  10. Going into space is probably one of the most dangerous things you could do in your life.

  11. As landmark as this was, I'd call it more of a dip than a walk. They never left the capsule, could have at least gotten fully out while holding on. #SpaceDIP

  12. The flat earthers can now get proof for themselves!

  13. Boeing is in the dustbin of history after this
