5 Things To Know About The First Emirati Female Astronaut Nora Al Matrooshi<\/em><\/p>\n

The first female Emirati astronaut, Nora Al-Matrooshi, has just been chosen to join the stars, much like the first batch of astronauts did a year back. Along with Mohammed Al-Mulla, Nora was selected to be part of the second bath of the UAE Astronaut Programme.<\/a><\/p>\n

The two chosen astronauts will soon commence their in-house training ahead of their Houston trip to join NASA.<\/p>\n

What does this mean for Nora? Well, she will also get the chance to head to the International Space Station (a big deal for all aspiring and working astronauts.)<\/p>\n

We love to see it!<\/p>\n

On that note, let\u2019s get to know Nora a little bit more\u2026<\/h2>\n
