An unforgettable moment!

Eyes across the UAE and the Arab world were glued to the livestream links to watch Hazza Al Mansouri undertake the mission of a lifetime.

Al Mansouri is onboard the Soyuz MS-15 along with two other astronauts. They blasted off in the direction of the International Space Station… For the first 8-10 critical minutes, the astronauts will be propelled at speeds of over 25,000 km/h until they reach space. Stay tuned for live updates to the story.
