Thirty Seconds To Mars have lift off. The band’s new single “Up In The Air” is officially on its way to the International Space Station.

The song, featured on their upcoming fourth album, hitched a ride on the second SpaceX Drag Cargo Capsule, which along with the very first copy of “Up In The Air” is carrying 1,200 pounds of supplies for the space station crew and experiments being conducted aboard the laboratory.

Jared Leto and the rest of his Thirty Seconds To Mars bandmates got a chance to watch the ship blastoff from Cape Canaveral this morning (March 1), tweeting their excitement throughout the launch and posting photos of them in front of the Cape Canaveral sign, along with a snapshot  of the band with NASA Commander Mark Kelly.

They later tweeted out a short video of the actual space launch with a bit of their own commentary.
