Mindy Park is a Korean-American satellite communications engineer who works for NASA in SatCom. She once joked about being "Space Paparazzi" or an "Interplanetary Voyeur". She monitors the satellites that are pointed at Mars, and was the first one to realise that Mark Watney was alive after seeing that the rover had moved from where Commander Lewis had said it was in her logs. Mindy Park is inexplicably played by white actress, Mackenzie Davis.
