Ariana Grande welcomes fans into her universe Sunday night at Toyota Center. But before that, Grande took a space trip of her own.
The pop superstar visited NASA Saturday, chronicling it in her Instagram stories. She donned a spacesuit, and her photo was featured on one of the screens as a welcome to Mission Control.
“Thank you for the coolest day of my life @nasa. My mind is still processing and devouring every second of what just happened but I can’t wait to share more,” Grande wrote. “What a special day and experience. Thank you so so so so much for your generosity and for showing my friends and I around.”
And there’s a deeper connection. Grande’s “thank u, next” album features a song called “NASA.” Her friend can be heard playing it while astronaut Grande laughs
Grande added more photos Sunday, including the “incredibly special opportunity” to FaceTime with astronauts in space. She also posed with the Mission Control team and got to experience some cool NASA toys.
The NASA Johnson Space Center even got in on the fun, sharing a photo on Instagram Stories with a play on the song.
“It’s like you’re the universe and we’re N-A-S-A.”
Grande’s current tour is here Sunday and features two hours of hits, including “Into You,” “God is a Woman” and “Break Free.”
