The UAE's launch to the International Space Station, a milestone in the history of the UAE, is one of its most significant achievements. The real and most important achievement was not only the arrival of the Emirates to the International Space Station, but also the investment in the UAE by the leaders and government of the UAE, thanks to their trust and support.
