The rocket mounted on a mobile launcher carrying its precious cargo was moved 500 metres from the Vehicle Assembly Building to the launch pad in a process that took about 30 minutes.
The decision for the launch vehicle roll-out came after a weather assessment.
After being delayed twice due to foul weather in Japan, the probe is scheduled to take off at 1.58am on Monday.
They got some much needed motivation as the UAE leaders called in on Saturday to review the probe's pre-flight preparations.
The Arab world's first interplanetary mission will see the Hope probe travel 495 million km with a cruise speed of 121,000km/hr to reach the Red Planet in February next year. It will provide the first truly global picture of the Martian atmosphere.
