The UAE astronaut Sultan Al Neyadi on Tuesday shared a breathtaking video of Egypt from the International Space Station (ISS) and extended his greetings to the warm people of Egypt.
Al Neyadi recalled the golden words late Sheikh Zayed once has said about the country.
Al Neyadi tweeted, “The words of Late Sheikh Zayed, ‘Egypt's renaissance is a renaissance for all Arabs,’ remain just as powerful and relevant today as when they were first spoken. His enduring love for Egypt has seeped into the heart of Emiratis nation- wide. As I gaze down from space on this land, I extend my greetings to Egypt and its warm people.”

A week ago Al Neyadi has shared picture of planet earth from the ISS with the landscape of the UAE clearly visible.
Al Neyadi said, “No matter where I am in the world, my path always leads me home. And even from Space, the site of our beautiful country takes my breath away every time.”
The stunning image shows the georgraphical area of the UAE along with neighboring Saudi Arabia.
Neyadi has also shared a video of a mobile tablet rotating in the certain directions with a little force.
Al Neyadi explained how objects rotate in the space, where the gravity is zero.
He noted that the direction of rotation relies on the position of the object.
