Pierwszy HopeOrbiter Hope ( مسبار الأمل, Al Amal) został wykonany przez Agencję Kosmiczną Emiratów Arabskich wraz z Uniwersytetem Colorado Boulder, Uniwersytetem stanu Arizona oraz Uniwersytetem Kalifornijskim w Berkeley. Głównym celem tego orbitera jest badanie atmosfery Marsa. Badacze mają nadzieję, że dzięki temu poznamy proces, przez który czerwona planeta traci wodór oraz tlen. Jest on wyposażony w dwa spektrometry oraz kamerę. (...)

UAE’s Hope spacecraft is poised to make pioneering measurements of the Martian atmosphere.(...) Entry into Mars’s orbit happened at around 16.00 UTC on 9 February, after a seven-month journey following Hope’s launch from Japan on 20 July. With a 27-minute-long burn of its 6 thrusters, the craft will have slowed from its cruise speed of 121,000 kilometres per hour to around 18,000 kilometres per hour, using up about half of its total fuel supply. To enter orbit after its 494-million-kilometre journey, Hope needed to hit a 600-kilometre sweet spot. (...)
The craft is now in an elliptical holding orbit while engineers test and commission its instruments, ready to move into the ‘science orbit’ from which Hope will begin its mission in earnest in mid-May. This wide, elliptical orbit is what makes the mission special. It will allow Hope’s three instruments — a high-resolution imager and infrared and ultraviolet spectrometers — to observe every geographical region of Mars, at every time of day, once every nine days, to create a global map of Martian weather. Such observations have never before been made at Mars.(...)

(...) The UAE has sped into the space sector: Hope launched a little more than a decade after the nation's first Earth-orbiting satellite, DubaiSat 1, did so. The nation has pushed space exploration as a way to develop its science and technology know-how and to buffer its economy, which is largely built on oil.
In addition to the Hope mission, the UAE is recruiting new astronauts in the wake, plans to launch a technology lander to the moon in 2024, and has a century-long Red Planet strategy dubbed Mars 2117, which incorporates both terrestrial priorities and long-term exploration goals. (...)
