- UAE astronaut Sultan Al Neyadi made a honey sandwich in space and shared a video of it on X.
- The honey took on a spherical shape due to the microgravity environment.
- The video has garnered over 150,000 views and counting.
Sultan Al Neyadi, the astronaut from the UAE currently stationed at the International Space Station (ISS) for a half-year mission, has posted an enthralling video from space on the platform X (previously referred to as Twitter).
In the video, he can be seen enjoying a piece of bread topped with honey.
“Have you ever wondered how honey forms in space? I still have some Emirati honey left that I enjoy from time to time. Honey has many benefits, especially for the health of astronauts,” wrote UAE astronaut Sultan Al Neyadi while sharing a video on X.
The video begins with the astronaut gripping a honey bottle in an upright position, gently pressing it to release a substantial portion while balancing a slice of bread above.
Owing to the microgravity environment, the honey adheres to the bread and takes on a spherical shape.
Al Neyadi proceeds to sway the bread, prompting the honey to disperse smoothly, and then adeptly folds the slice in half before relishing a gratifying bite.
