UAE space tourist tells of exhilarating launch on Blue Origin flight – The National
Secured tightly into his seat, bright orange lights flashing, thick smoke visible from the window and then an enormous, sudden pressure against his body — this was the experience of uae space tourist Hamish Harding as a Blue Origin rocket lifted off the ground, carrying him to the edge of space.
The long-time UAE resident described his flight during a virtual press conference held only an hour after the suborbital flight landed back in rural West Texas on June 4.
The 50-year-old was one of six passengers who took off on a New Shepard rocket to the final frontier.
