Next week, 434 miles above the Earth, @rookisaacman will attempt the first-ever private spacewalk. The Polaris Dawn crew of four will be the first crew to test Starlink in space. They will be riding in a SpaceX Dragon capsule, with next generation SpaceX-designed EVA spacesuits. It uses new materials & joint designs to provide greater flexibility. The helmet has a new visor to reduce glare and a Heads-Up Display. The dragon capsule will fly as high as the Van Allen radiation belt, 870 miles from Earth’s surface – or more than three times higher than the International Space Station. This will be the highest altitude of any human spaceflight mission in more than a half-century since the Apollo program.

+7% YoY! That's #Fiji's visitor arrivals for 2024 after June's numbers just dropped, adding $330M to our visitor economy. Fantastic to see our satisfaction score rising too under the pressure of labour shortages & high occupancy. And gongs for our resorts! Vinaka #teamFiji!

On my flight back home today on @FijiAirways today, I got to try their new “My Island” sleeping setup in economy. With a pillow-top mattress and seatbelt extender, it was heavenly. At only $250, it’s the best new value across the South Pacific. #PaxEx
