Incredible.
Earlier today, a billionaire made history as he walked out into space as the first ever private astronaut to do so.
The space mission being run by Space X was fronted by billionaire Jarred Isaacman who is commander for the mission.
Isaacman led the group of astronauts as they attempted the first ever privately funded spacewalk.
While the mission was considered high-risk, it all paid off, and Isaacman was noticeably blown away by the view from outside of the spaceship.
As he walked out, Isaacman said: "It's gorgeous."
The amateur spaceman added: "Back at home we still have a lot of work to do, but from here it looks like a perfect world."
You can watch the spacewalk below.
Wise words.
