All very good for science, but i'm amused that this is labelled as UAE mission when the craft is built by Americans in the US and launched from Japan on a Japanese rocket. Are the UAE doing anything other that bankrolling it?

Specifying and designing the mission?

Many countries have space programmes but rely on other nations to get their craft into space.
