In connection with the single release, the International Space Station (ISS) got to take part in a pre-recorded performance of the song.

In the performance, which was recorded outdoors, the British band was accompanied by holograms of aliens dancing to the beat of the music.

Singer Chris Martin also had a chat with the French astronaut Thomas Pesquet, who is stationed on the ISS.

- Right now we do not have the opportunity to play for anyone on earth, so we thought we would play for you, Chris Martin said during the conversation.
