NASA broadcast a Missy Elliott song across the solar system for the first time.

Venus danced to the music of Missy Elliott last week. Yes, the planet in space.

NASA used its Deep Space Network radio antennas to broadcast Elliott’s “The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)” through the solar system to Venus.

The moment is historic because it is the first hip-hop song to be sent into space. NASA has only used its system to send a song from Earth once before, the agency said.

It took 14 minutes for the song to travel from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab in Southern California to Venus, which NASA says is Elliott’s favorite planet, a total distance of 158 million miles from Earth.

Missy “Misdemeanor” can now confidently say that her award-winning music is out of this world.

“Both space exploration and Missy Elliott’s art are about pushing boundaries,” said Brittany Brown, director of communications for NASA’s Digital and Technology Division at its headquarters in Washington. “Missy has experience incorporating space-centric storytelling and futuristic imagery in her music videos, so the opportunity to collaborate on something out of the ordinary is really fitting.”

“I chose Venus because it symbolizes strength, beauty and empowerment and I am so honored to have the opportunity to share my art and message with the universe!” Elliott said in a NASA statement.
