McFly’s Star Girl will be played in space!!! That’s right in an amazing sequence of events that started with just one tweet followed by a wave of re-tweets from McFly fans, 30 secs of McFly’s ‘Star Girl’ will be played on the international space station currently orbiting the earth. Even as we write this we can’t quite believe it’s true – I mean come on… how often do you get to tell the world that your favourite song is getting played 1000’s of miles into space – it’s stellar news!

The song will be played on October 21st at 11.30am EDT to the astronauts aboard the international space station and is part of a NASA ‘tweetup’ where 35 people will get to talk to the astronauts via twitter.

Back here on earth NASA TV and website will be giving live coverage of the event including showing the full length video of McFly’s ‘Star Girl’ You can hook up with NASA at www.nasa.gov/home/

Get the champagne supernovas at the ready – the galaxy is about to be introduced to McFly!
