A live broadcast by the US Space Agency "NASA", on the "YouTube" platform, on Friday, documented the exit of the Emirati astronaut, Sultan Al Neyadi, from the pressure equation at the International Space Station, on Friday, thus becoming the first Arab to walk in space.
Earlier, Al-Neyadi said that he will be released from the pressure equation at the International Space Station on Friday, thus becoming the first Arab to walk in space.
Al-Neyadi wrote on his Twitter page: "Today we reach a new stage in our career... I underwent intensive training for more than 3 years in preparation for this task that requires high concentration and accuracy.
" He added, "A few hours and I'm out of the airlock on the International Space Station in this suit." And he continued: "A few hours, and we will write a new history for the Arabs, and the flag of the Emirates touches space."
On Thursday, Al Neyadi had written, "Tomorrow, my colleague Stephen Bowen and I will depart from the International Space Station on a new mission that will ensure the station's sustainability to change the radio frequency RFG unit and prepare for the installation of solar panels."
And he added, "After the long and difficult training, we are ready and our spirits are high to take on the challenge in this mission. Tomorrow we have a new date with Zayed's ambition."
