If you’re anything like us, you’ve been fascinated by Mars ever since the UAE’s Hope Probe mission to the red planet.
And if you want to learn more about Mars and the UAE’s space programme and achievements, listen up.
Experience Mars is a new exhibition at Cultural Foundation that’s designed to celebrate the UAE’s exploration of space. Get on your space suit, this experience is taking you out of this world.
Experience Mars offers innovative methods to engage with knowledge, stimulate creativity and inspire a young generation to aspire beyond the stars. It’s an immersive experience, rich with interactive technologies and tactile adventures.
You’ll journey out of this world, through space to the surface of Mars, with plenty of activities and tactile adventures along the way. The exhibition is running until Tuesday February 2022 and can be found at Cultural Foundation.
Whenever the UAE announces a space mission, we get a little starry-eyed. Using knowledge acquired during the Emirates Mars Mission and its Hope Probe, the UAE is launching a space mission to Venus.
The mission’s primary aim will be to explore the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter: the source of most meteorites that impact earth.
