Footage from a display at the recently-opened Museum of the Future offers a glimpse of what may be in store for Dubai in 2071, drone-like vehicles filling the skies, a superfast hyperloop speeding through a tunnel on Sheikh Zayed Road and rockets being blasted into space.
A short recording of the impressive video by a TikTok user has already clocked more than two million views.
The museum, which opened on February 22, uses screens with impressive graphics of a rocket launch and a DNA library that features more than 4,500 species.

The first exhibition involves boarding a spacecraft named Hope, after the UAE’s Mars orbiter, and launching to the OSS Hope space station 600 kilometres above Earth.
Visitors are taken inside a room with metal walls designed to look like a spacecraft. The screens all around that act as windows to show the stunning views during lift-off.
