A Girl and an Astronaut (Polish: Dziewczyna i kosmonauta) is a Polish sci-fi drama romance television series created by Netflix, based on an idea by Bartek Prokopowicz and Jakub Korolczuk.[1][2]

Synopsis

It is 2022, and Niko is a young arrogant fighter pilot who gets the opportunity of a lifetime: to go into outer space in a Russian capsule for 24 hours, as part of a private experiment on human cryopreservation. He is madly in love with Marta, who is equally pursued by Niko's best friend, Bogdan. Shortly after being launched into orbit, Niko begins to hallucinate and accidentally sets the capsule timer for thirty years, immediately going into sub-hibernation.

In 2052, Marta is married to Bogdan, and they have a daughter, Oliwia. One day, Niko's capsule reappears in the sky and lands in the ocean. SkyCOMM, the Russian company that launched him into space, retrieves it and brings it back to Russia. There, Nadia, who thirty years before was a seven-year-old girl whose grandfather was the doctor in charge of Niko's health and training, now suffers from ALS and wants to use Niko's stem cells to find a cure.

Marta travels to Russia to bring Niko, who hasn't aged, back home, but is prevented from doing so by the Russians. Niko eventually escapes, with SkyCOMM operatives in pursuit.
