Taking advantage of a specific time window, the journey to Mars will take less time than under normal circumstances. "Being on route to a planet like Mars is an exceptional achievement". The initial launch date was July 14.
July is set to be a busy month for Mars-bound launches. The specimen will later be returned to Earth and examined for signs of past life on the planet.
The U.A.E.'s interplanetary mission was first announced in 2014 by Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the country's president. Today's launch is the second H-IIA launch for the UAE government, following the observation satellite, Khalifasat, launched in 2018.

The explorer, measuring 2.9 meters in length and 8 meters in width when its solar panels are fully extended and weighing 1.5 tons, will research the temperature and moisture of the Martian atmosphere to study changes over a long period in the climate of the red planet. "That's the other part of the mission". "Our partners at LASP have been key to ensuring the success of the mission, delivering an extraordinary spacecraft in nearly half the time of conventional missions but also in providing the resources and knowledge we need to drive our own development of space systems engineering and planetary science", Sharaf said.
