Sara Sabry made history as the first Egyptian astronaut, flying into space on August 4, 2022. She trained intensively every morning before her full-time job as a CTO. Her journey began without elite connections or a space agency in her country. Sabry’s routine involved waking up at 4:30 a.m. for training and research, often leading to sleepless nights. She believes her disciplined approach exemplifies the commitment needed to achieve ambitious goals, urging young people to embrace hard work to unlock their dreams.
"Back then it was, it was really, really, it was really tough. You would wake up at night, and then you would go back at night, so you barely see the daylight ever."
"You need access to a plane just to rack up the 1,000 flight hours required to apply to programs like NASA."
