Summary:

  • The UAE has made significant achievements in advancing space development through technological innovation and international cooperation by 2025.
  • Six satellites were successfully launched, including the UAE’s first SAR satellite, Etihad-SAT.
  • With participation in NASA’s Gateway lunar base, the UAE will play a crucial role in lunar exploration.

2. Considering the Background

Space development not only demonstrates a country’s technological capabilities but also symbolizes international cooperation. The rapid growth of the UAE in the field of space can be attributed to the government’s proactive investments and the nurturing of young talent. These movements are also strategic efforts to promote technological innovation in the region and diversify the economy. Let’s consider how this might affect our daily lives.

3. What Will the Future Hold?

Hypothesis 1 (Neutral): A Future Where Space Development Becomes Commonplace

As countries like the UAE advance in space development, space technologies will become more mainstream. Data and technologies obtained from space may permeate our daily lives, leading to enhanced accuracy in weather forecasting and the proliferation of new communication technologies. This could result in a more comfortable and safer way of living.

Hypothesis 2 (Optimistic): A Future of Significant International Cooperation

The UAE’s success will accelerate international cooperation in space development. By collaborating, countries may advance lunar and Martian exploration, making the creation of living environments beyond Earth a realistic prospect. If this is realized, a sustainable future that does not rely on Earth’s resources may emerge.

Hypothesis 3 (Pessimistic): A Future Where Earth’s Problems Are Forgotten

While significant resources are directed towards space development, there is a possibility that issues on Earth may be neglected. Concerns about environmental issues and social inequality could diminish, risking the postponement of sustainable development on Earth. We must continue to pay attention to issues at our feet.
