Thuraya

Thuraya is a special kind of telephone that you can use to talk to people even if you are very far away from them. It works like a normal phone but it uses special technology to connect you to a satellite in the sky. This satellite then talks to another satellite or to a ground station, and then to the person you want to talk to. Because of this, you can talk to people who are in places where regular phones might not work, like on a boat in the middle of the ocean or in a remote village in the desert. Thuraya phones also have a special feature called GPS, which can help you figure out where you are and how to get to where you want to go. They are very good for people who need to communicate from anywhere in the world, even if there are no mobile networks or Wi-Fi available.
