Those who closely followed Sultan AlNeyadi’s spacewalk on Friday were also treated to a vicarious space adventure as they saw stunning shots of orbital sun..
AlNeyadi acted as back-up to Hazza Al Mansouri when he conducted his eight-day mission to the ISS in September/October 2019.
AlNeyadi studied in Britain at the University of Brighton, where he received a BSc (Hons) in electronics and communications engineering in 2004.
After going back to the UAE, he studied at Zayed Military College for a year and then worked in the UAE armed forces as a communications engineer.
