A look back at a defining milestone in the UAE's journey toward homegrown satellite capability. At Space42 Space Systems, our assembly, integration, and testing facility, three Foresight constellation satellites were completed in Abu Dhabi last year. These advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites, built for Earth observation to dual-use sovereign standards, brought the constellation to five satellites in orbit and operational. They now serve clients at home and globally, supporting work that matters: from national security to disaster response and infrastructure development. In this Abu Dhabi Media Office interview, recorded at the time, Khalid Al Awadi, Senior Vice President of Earth Observation Systems at Space42, reflects on the milestone and what it meant for the UAE's space ambitions. This is what national capability looks like in practice, built for the societies and economies that depend on it. #Space42 #Foresight #EarthObservation #SAR
