United Arab Emirates (UAE) astronaut Sultan Al Neyadi captured the coastline of Dubai from the International Space Station (ISS).

“Say hello to the place that is a microcosm of the world. Our stunning Dubai as seen from space,” he tweeted on Friday.

Al Neyadi has captured parts of the UAE and the wider Arab world since arriving at the station on March 2 on a six-month mission.

During Eid Al Adha, Al Neyadi tweeted a video of himself wearing an Emirati kandura and holding Suhail — the MBRSC game mascot — also dressed in traditional dress.
