CBSN
Missy Elliott lyrics blasted off into space as NASA transmitted her song "The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)" 158 million miles from Earth to Venus, the space agency said Monday.
It took nearly 14 minutes for the hip-hop track to reach its destination. The Missy Elliott song is the second song ever transmitted into deep space, following up on the Beatles' "Across the Universe" in 2008.
"My song 'The Rain' has officially been transmitted all the way to Venus, the planet that symbolizes strength, beauty and empowerment," Missy Elliott said in a social media post. "The sky is not the limit, it's just the beginning."
