DUBAI // Youths are set to learn more about space exploration after a partnership was agreed between a travel agency in the emirate and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (Nasa).

The deal means Compass International Tours will be able to regularly host Nasa astronauts as well as offer lower fares and priority reservation for Nasa’s popular Space Camp in Huntsville, Alabama.

Compass International signed the agreement with the US Space and Rocket Centre, an affiliate of Nasa, and it means the company is now a regional partner for the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, India and Egypt.
