The successful series has so far engaged over 9,600 participants across the UAE, providing a unique perspective into AlNeyadi’s historic longest Arab space mission and fostering interactive dialogue with him.
AlNeyadi has spent close to five months on the ISS, contributing to various scientific experiments and essential maintenance tasks. As AlNeyadi’s mission nears its end, this event marks an opportunity for the public in Abu Dhabi to engage with the Emirati astronaut one last time before his return, highlighting the significance of the UAE’s space ambitions and the inspiring journey of Sultan AlNeyadi.
The UAE Astronaut Programme is one of the projects managed by MBRSC under the UAE’s National Space Programme and funded by the ICT Fund of the Telecommunications and Digital Government Regulatory Authority (TDRA), which aims to support research and development in the ICT sector in the UAE and promote the country’s integration on the global stage.
