Abu Dhabi Police vehicles have been branded with the logo of UAE's Mars Mission, ahead of the launch of the first interplanetary mission by an Arab-Muslim country.

Officials say it's a strong expression of pride and happiness for the UAE people. 

The probe is set to take off early on Monday from the Tanegashima Space Centre in Japan.

The Emirates Mars Mission, EMM, has turned the dream of the Founding Father, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan, into reality.

The first fleet of field patrols caught the eyes of motorists and road users while plying through the emirate's roads today amidst an atmosphere of joy and optimism.

Abu Dhabi Police personnel expressed their delight and pride at participating in the historic and unprecedented event not only for the UAE but also for the region.

They also expressed their pride in seeing the vision and aspirations of the leadership, which they say, knows no limits to ambition and achievement, that has become a reality.
