On Tuesday morning, Swedish time, four private individuals were supposed to have been sent into space.

But during the night, Space X announced that the launch has been postponed until Wednesday "after a helium leak.".

The spaceflight is called Polaris Dawn and is intended to be the first where people who are not astronauts do a spacewalk, writes CNN.

There are four people on board. One of them stands out: Billionaire Jared Isaacman, who made a private spaceflight back in 2021. The others are his friend Scott Poteet, who has a long-standing background as a fighter pilot, and two engineers from Space X, Sarah Gillis and Anna Menon.
