SAASST's Participation at the Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City National Day Celebration

On Nov. 27, amidst the vibrant celebrations across the UAE, the Sharjah Academy for Astronomy, Space Sciences, and Technology (SAASST) had the privilege of participating in an event at the Sheikh Shakhbout Medical City (SSMC), Abu Dhabi.

This event celebrated the UAE's national day and the country's achievements in various sectors, including the space industry. At the event, our primary focus was to shed light on SAASST and its various initiatives and programs. The audience was invited to attend the region's largest and most advanced planetarium, and they were also informed about internship opportunities that can greatly benefit students. Through effective advertising and an engaging lecture, we shared insights into SAASST's pivotal role in advancing space sciences within the UAE. SAASST's efforts mirror the nation's commitment to becoming a regional leader in space exploration, as emphasized by the UAE Space Agency's initiatives since its establishment in 2014. Participating at such events makes us participate in the national narrative that speaks of ambition, progress, and a promising future.
