      UAE pioneers lunar breakthrough with NASA in bold space collaboration

      by

      Lifeby Ruman Baig57 mins ago In a historic announcement, the UAE has embarked on a groundbreaking venture with NASA to co-create the inaugural lunar space station, marking a pivotal moment in space exploration.This landmark agreement not only signifies a quantum leap for the UAE’s space aspirations but also sets the stage for Emirati astronauts to play a crucial role in upcoming moon missions.This pioneering project, named Lunar Gateway, is a collaborative effort involving key global players, including Japan, Canada, and the European Union.Aligned with NASA’s Artemis initiative for sustained lunar exploration, Lunar Gateway not only amplifies the UAE’s commitment to space exploration but also positions the nation prominently in the global space race.Anticipated to launch its initial components by 2025, Lunar Gateway’s ambitious timeline includes the deployment of the Emirates Airlock by 2030. This strategic move reinforces the UAE’s dedication to pushing the boundaries of space exploration and bolsters its objective to dispatch the first Emirati astronaut into lunar orbit.Speaking at the announcement held at Qasr Al Watan in Abu Dhabi, UAE President HH Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan affirmed, “The UAE’s involvement in this global venture underscores our dedication to fostering collaborative ties that contribute to the advancement of knowledge and human progress.” HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, echoed this sentiment, stating, “This project symbolizes a revolutionary initiative for humanity’s return to the Moon, establishing it as a launchpad for future missions to Mars.”I was pleased to attend with my brother Mohammed bin Rashid the launch of the UAE’s contributions to the historic Lunar Gateway, which will serve as humanity’s first space station around the Moon. Through our long-term investment in space exploration and scientific innovation,…— محمد بن زايد (@MohamedBinZayed) January 7, 2024While Lunar Gateway is poised to facilitate lunar exploration, its aspirations extend far beyond the moon’s surface, reaching an astounding distance of approximately 401 million kilometers. This mission serves as a springboard for future manned missions to Mars, a concept emphasized by H.H. Sheikh Mohammed, who affirmed that the Emirates would play an integral role in this colossal endeavor – one of the most ambitious human space projects in the coming decade.As the UAE embarks on this cosmic journey with NASA, the collaboration not only charts new frontiers in space exploration but also cements the nation’s status as a leading force in advancing humanity’s quest for knowledge beyond Earth’s confines.– For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and InstagramImages: Instagram @hhshkmohdfan More
