We’re not sure if this has ever been done before.
To celebrate the launch of Gavin James’ new album Only Ticket Home, he has quite literally launched a copy of the album into space.
The Dublin man, with the help of his two scientist pals, managed to send the album on a four hour journey through the clouds.
It ended up traveling an incredible distance, with one of the images showing the horizon an astounding 1,000km away.
Don’t believe us? Have a look at the footage yourself!
