HOUSTON (AP) \u2014 A space film featuring Ryan Gosling has earned enthusiastic approval from astronauts currently traveling more than halfway to the moon.<\/p>

Jeremy Hansen, the Canadian astronaut participating in the Artemis II mission, revealed on Saturday that he and his fellow crew members had the opportunity to screen “Project Hail Mary” alongside their families prior to embarking on their lunar journey. Hansen described the viewing experience as “a real treat” while preparing for his upcoming space mission.<\/p>

The Canadian actor Gosling extended his well-wishes to all four astronauts before their Wednesday departure.<\/p>

“Art imitates science and vice versa,” Hansen commented during a live broadcast organized by the Canadian Space Agency. “I thought it was just such an inspirational example \u2014 somebody who goes out there and just gets what was done to save humanity. It’s a pretty extraordinary example that we can all follow.”<\/p>

Hansen holds the distinction of being the first international astronaut to travel to the moon.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
