But did you know that even from the space these landmarks look stunning? A Japanese astronaut captured some lovely images of the UAE’s coastline and we are in awe of it.
UAE’s Coastline From Space
Wakata Koichi, a Japanese astronaut shared some stunning images of the landmarks on the UAE’s coastline. The images are from the International Space Station (ISS). He posted images of Palm Jebel Ali, Abu Dhabi city, the World Islands and Palm Jumeirah from space on Twitter. The unique design of these landmarks makes them easily visible from the orbiting science laboratory. This is the main reason why they are so famous among astronauts to photograph. Koichi called the coastline beautiful. He is Japan space agency Jaxa’s astronaut. He is also a member of the UAE Space Agency’s advisory committee. Being on space flights, Soyuz Missions and space shuttles totally account for his 20 years of experience. To be a part of the Nasa/SpaceX-Crew 5 mission, he flew to ISS.
