The Past Meets Present: Baba Zayed’s Dreams Have Come Alive Thanks To His Son
A photo has been circulating social media, following the meet-up between the first Emirati astronaut Hazza Al Mansoori and the UAE’s President and Abu Dhabi’s ruler, HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. So inspiring.
The incredible then and now photo shows the late Baba Zayed, the founding father of the UAE, and father of Abu Dhabi’s current leader- in hopes of a space mission for the UAE and the present time: following the first-ever Emirati space mission aboard the International Space Station.
Just goes to show how far the UAE has come in such a short period of time!
