While The Rolling Stones were prepping themselves and getting their trucks loaded with their expensive and heavy equipment, the iconic frontman Mick Jagger gave a visit to the NASA headquarters. 

Visiting the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, the Can’t You Hear Me Knocking singer also shared the memories and moments with his beloved fans. 

As amazed as his fans were to see him exploring the infinite corners of space and getting involved in the talks of the interstellar journey, even the ones at NASA, who welcomed him, could not believe that they were paid a visit by one of the greatest rockstars on earth and probably in the universe. 

In his Instagram post, the singer could be seen accompanied by several members of NASA, while having an atypical line welcoming the legend.
