UAE astronaut Hazzaa AlMansoori, who took off to the International Space Station on Wednesday, shared a picture that he clicked from the space lab, 400km above the earth.
“I took this photo from 400km above Earth. Can you guess the place,” he said in a tweet.
The UAE achieved a major milestone last week as the first Emirati astronaut Hazzaa AlMansoori lifted off to space on the Soyuz MS-12 mission, S61 Expedition. AlMansoori, father of four and a former military fighter jet pilot, rocketed off at 5.57pm (UAE time) on September 25 from the Baikonur Cosmodrome’s Gagarin Launch Pad.
