Etihad Airways raises the UAE flag during its incredible journey

To commemorate the UAE Flag Day, Etihad Airways, the national airline of the UAE, released a video in which 4 children sent their wishes and flags all the way into space.

In cooperation with the high-altitude balloon operator Send Into Space, the UAE flag has reached the edge of space at a height of 32,182 meters (105583 feet) above the earth. The national flag flies at a speed of 5.5 meters per second with a flight time of 2 hours and 52 minutes.

Interesting facts about the UAE flag entering space:

  • The UAE flag reaches a peak height of 32,182 meters (105,583 feet) above the earth
  • The gateway to near space is the “Armstrong Limit” of 19.2 kilometers. At this altitude, the pressure is very low. You need to wear a pressurized spacesuit to survive, because low pressure will make your blood boil in your body-the flag is close Twice this height.
  • The pressure on the national flag is almost 0% of sea level pressure, and the lowest point temperature drops to minus 62 degrees Celsius.
  • The minimum pressure is recorded as 3.2kpa (0.032 bar)
  • In the early stages of the flag descent, before there was no air to counter the parachute, the flag was lowered at a speed of approximately 250 mph, and as the rally continued to descend, this slowed to a good moderate walking speed.
  • The average ascent speed is 5.5 m/s
  • Flight time 2 hours 52 minutes
  • Flight path distance (when the crow is flying) 95 miles
