Thank you, Dr. Farouk El-Baz

It only rains every 20-50 years in the Western Dessert. However, two millions years ago, very heavy rain fell there and a huge quantity of water collected under the desert sand. Today, we need this water and the person we have to thank for finding it is one of Egypt’s most famous men, Dr.Farouk El-Baz.

 

Remote sensing

Dr. Farouk El-Baz, who is a space scientist and a geologist, is the director of remote sensing at Boston University in the USA. He is the world’s greatest expert in remote sensing: the use of satellite to find water under deserts. Underground water was found in the Western Desert and in Sinai thanks to photographs which he took from satellites.

From 1967 to 1973, Dr.El-Baz worked on the American Apollo space project, which landed men on the moon. He gave advice on where the astronauts should land, and told them how to collect rocks and soil on the moon.

Dr. El-Baz was born in Zagazig in 1938 and was educated at Ain Shams University.
