Personal Life and Inspiration:
AlMulla’s passion for space stemmed from his love for aviation. His interest in the field deepened after the announcement of the first batch of the UAE Astronaut Programme and after meeting UAE astronauts Hazzaa AlMansoori and Sultan AlNeyadi at an airshow in 2019. AlMulla views His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum as his role model, inspired by His Highness’ unique work ethic, management, and goal achievement. In the field of space exploration, his role models are Emirati astronauts Hazzaa AlMansoori and Sultan AlNeyadi. AlMulla lives by his motto: “The person who pursues their goal in life will achieve it, no matter how long it takes.” He dreams of being part of the first Emirati space team to explore the Moon and hopes to train astronauts in a dedicated centre.
AlMulla enjoys photography, football, and chess, a game he has played for over 20 years.
