00:00The UAE Space Agency, in collaboration with the Dubai Astronomy Group, organized three

00:05different viewing locations to view the annular solar eclipse and ring of fire on December

00:1026.

00:11The solar eclipse occurred for the first time since 1847, where the moon passed in front

00:16of the sun.

00:17The eclipse was seen entirely from areas around Liwa and Zayed City in Abu Dhabi.

00:22Seeing the solar eclipse was very fascinating as it happens in a very long time here in

00:30the UAE.

00:31It was very worth it, especially the ride, which was three hours from Dubai.

00:35It was an excellent experience and the kids were so excited to see, even I have seen first

00:41time in my life.

00:42It was amazing, I cannot, I don't have the words to tell, but it was an amazing experience

00:48for me.

00:49For me, it was the first time and we drove all the way, actually Fawad gave me a surprise,

00:54I did not know until this morning that I'm about to see.

00:57He told me there's an artist performing here and it's once in a lifetime and apparently

01:03it turns out to be the artist, like, which is nature, so absolutely brilliant, absolutely

01:08amazing.

01:09Definitely it's quite of an experience, I mean, it's something we heard maybe it's going

01:14to happen for the next 180 years to come, so it was spectacular to be able to witness

01:19this and it was amazing.

01:20We have to take a journey of two hours to come here and it's totally worth it.
