Thirty Seconds to Mars is sending the new song into space.
NASA and SpaceX will launch "Up in the Air," the new song, from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. It will travel aboard a Falcon 9 rocket carrying a Dragon cargo capsule and land at the International Space Station, where it will be greeted by astronaut Tom Marshburn.
The launch is scheduled for a 10:10 a.m. liftoff
and can be watched live at NASA's live-stream website.
In case you're wondering if sending a song is an efficient use of a rocket heading to space, fear not: The Dragon capsule will be loaded with over 1,200 pounds of scientific paraphernalia.
Marshburn and the band will do a live Q&A on March 18, the day of the song's worldwide premiere.
The extensive effort marks the beginning of Thirty Seconds to Mars' promotional activity for their fourth studio album, due out later in 2013.
