The company has recently brought former NASA and SpaceX employees on board.
The Middle East has now become home to one of the major players in the global space race after the UAE joined the likes of the US and China, once it entered the Martian orbit in its maiden attempt with the much talked about Hope Probe, opening doors for more projects including a voyage to the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. The country which has already sent out a homegrown satellite and is assembling its second one for a launch next year, has also selected two sets of cosmonauts so far, while it focuses on initiatives to train space scientists of tomorrow.
Talent from the UAE has also made its presence felt in the US, where a group of Emirati students created and launched rockets, while even schoolchildren in the Middle East's tech powerhouse have come up with innovative concepts for a future on Mars. Amidst these developments, the subsidiary of a Dubai-based portal the car buyer, has started recruiting astronauts and space scientists for cosmic projects, after promising help to clients with sale of spacecraft over the internet.
The website we buy any spaceship, which offers to fetch the best possible price for a cosmic vehicle, is now recruiting pros who have worked at major organisations like NASA and SpaceX in the past. Qualifications for these former engineers include an in-depth knowledge of spaceships to come up with an accurate estimate for vessels, in order to serve the client efficiently after a launch in 2023.
Expecting clients who will be looking for a spacecraft from Earth to the Moon or even Mars, the site wants to have a team of experts ready in order to have a first mover advantage in the sector.
The venture highlights a thriving space-tech sector, which includes commercial satellite manufacturers, firms like SpaceX that provide a launchpad to cosmic vehicles developed by governments, and even entities that are bidding for mining minerals from asteroids.
