Four civilian astronauts have embarked on a daring space mission. Earlier today, Elon Musk’s company SpaceX launched its ‘Polaris Dawn’ mission from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

The crew includes a billionaire tech entrepreneur, who’s part-funding the mission. They’re due to perform the first-ever spacewalk conducted by private citizens.
For more on this, we’re joined by space expert Keith Cowing, the Editor of NASAWatch.com.
