The UAE's Hope Probe has captured more pictures as it makes its way to the Red Planet.
His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, shared the images on his Twitter account with the caption: "Mars is in front of us, and Saturn and Jupiter are behind us, as in the pictures."
The images were captured using a star-tracking camera.
Sheikh Mohammed added that the Hope Probe has already travelled more than 100 million km.
It's expected to enter the Mars orbit in February 2021.
