NASA has produced a video clip on the occasion of the annual Star Wars day, which stars the iconic R2-D2 coming to their rescue.
In the video, R2-D2 is seen gliding around the space agency's headquarters when he receives an urgent message to help them as Empire wants to stop it from delivering the "May the Fourth" message, the Daily Star reported.
The astromech droid is then seen fixing the satellite and foiling the plot of those from the Dark Side, which allows NASA flight engineer Rick Mastracchio to complete his message and sign off with "To everyone on Earth from the International Space Station May the Fourth Be With You".
