Netflix’s ‘Away’ stars Hilary Swank as Emma Green, a woman who leaves behind her family to lead a three-year mission to Mars. The new series is available to stream on Netflix right now and was released on September 4.
Back in February this year, Swank was able to go to NANA Johnson Space Center to get a better feel for what really goes on behind the scenes and got to meet several astronauts and experience a day in the life of an actual astronaut.
The visit was recorded and you can watch the clips on Netflix’s official YouTube channel or just watch it below. It was uploaded with the following description,
“Commander Emma Green leaves behind her husband and daughter to lead an international crew of astronauts on a perilous three-year mission to Mars. Hilary Swank, who plays an astronaut in the new Netflix Drama AWAY visited NASA’s Johnson Space Center back in February of 2020 to meet astronauts Karen Nyberg and Jessica Meir and experience a day in the life of a real astronaut.”

One of the more interesting parts of the video was when Swank ate actual astronaut food and we got to see that it’s not like it is in a lot of movies. It’s actually really good food and a lot of astronauts enjoy it. It’s similar to food they have in the military, but with a different combination and way of eating, because, space.
