NASA astronauts aboard the International Space Station were treated to a screening of "Star Wars: The Last Jedi" on Saturday, according to The Hill.

Astronaut Mark Vande Hei tweeted out a photo showing five of the six members of the ISS crew in "bungee-cord chairs" sporting drinks in bags enjoying a "science-fiction flick" on a projector screen.

Disney sent the movie using an uplink at NASA's Space Center in Houston, according to a NASA press release.

"Expedition 54 crew members . . . look forward to watching the science fiction saga at their leisure while they're living and working aboard the orbiting laboratory that will enable human and robotic exploration of galaxies far, far away," NASA said in its release.
