– In space, everything is regulated, everything is limited. We have exactly calculated how much water we can consume, how we have access to oxygen. And on earth? All this is without limit. After such a journey, this is appreciated – says Hazza Al Mansouri, an astronaut who spent over seven days in space in space in an interview with Business Polska. Our interlocutor admits that many astronauts experience the so -called The effect of viewing – also called “cosmic euphoria”. The point is that in space the perception of many things, for example your own planet, is completely changing.
– It was in space that I understood how important the earth is, that this is our mother. And that we have to take care of her very much. Not for ourselves, but for future generations – he adds.
The astronaut tells us that looking at the ground from the “cosmic” perspective makes an amazing impression – and makes a man start to think differently about his “home planet”. – This is our main message return from Earth. Take care of her! – he adds.
What is the most difficult in space? According to our interlocutor, just flying into space is not as difficult as returns.
– Then man feels a bit like a falling stone. It is much more aggressive for your body than flying orbit – he says.
Our interlocutor also argues that modern flights to space are considered quite safe, although of course the awareness that something can go wrong, always accompanies the astronaut.

Is a man higher in space?
Hazza al Mansouri admits that in space man is higher. – Yes, we grow a bit, though no more than a few cm. It's a funny feeling. Well, when a man returns to earth, height returns to normal – notes our interlocutor.
Nora al matrooshi, an astronaut from the Emirates, which is still waiting for the first journey, tells us that in this profession science never ends.
– The astronaut never really finishes training. If only because the technology is constantly changing, it actually changes every day. We want to go back to the moon, we want to reach Mars, so our role as astronauts is to constantly test new solutions and technologies – he says NE Nora Al Matrooshi.
Is the flight to Mars possible at all? “I hope it will happen in my life,” Hazza Al Mansouri tells us.
– However, there are a lot of logistics or technological challenges. I hope that new technologies will appear that will shorten the time that is needed for such a journey. At the moment, such a flight would last at least 6 months in one way. But you would have to wait at least a year on the spot to open a window to return. So we have to invent new technologies, although fortunately there are more and more private companies that do these things. So I believe that such new technologies will be developed quite quickly – he says.
