Via Twitter, retired Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) astronaut Naoko Yamazaki posted an update with a photograph showing a Neon Genesis Evangelion product in outer space. It should be noted that Yamazaki was the second woman to travel into space, after Chiaki Mukai. Yamazaki traveled on STS-131 launched on April 5, 2010 and retired from the agency in August 2011.
"It's been nine years since I saw Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo in theaters. So with Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thrice Upon a Time it's like I'm feeling the passage of time again. At the beginning of that movie there was a space exploration scene. For example, in this picture we are on the International Space Station (ISS), at an altitude of about 400 kilometers."

Finally, the film Evangelion: 3.0+1.0: Thrice Upon a Time, the last of the tetralogy of the new Evangelion project, was scheduled to be released on January 23 in Japan. However, due to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the production, it has been postponed indefinitely.
Synopsis of Rebuild of Evangelion
In the year 2015, the world is on the brink of destruction. Humanity's last hope lies in the hands of NERV, a special agency under the command of the United Nations, and its Evangelions, giant robots capable of defeating the Angels that herald the ruin of Earth. Gendou Ikari, head of the organization, is looking for compatible pilots who can synchronize with the Evangelions and bring out their true potential.
Assisting in this defensive effort are the talented strategist Misato Katsuragi, head of Tactical Operations, and Ritsuko Akagi, the chief scientist. Face to face with his father for the first time in years, 14-year-old Shinji Ikari's life must change irreversibly when he is taken to the NERV facility and discovers his heartbreaking destiny: he must become the pilot of the Evangelion-01 Unit with the fate of humanity in his hands.
