Between the Buried and Me's last two albums, the Parallax series, have been about inter-dimensional travel and parallel universes. It only makes sense that they've been invited to check out the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)'s Jet Propulsion Laboratory! Not to mention, NASA are apparently fans of the band. The band posted this video of their experience:

It's a cool video to watch, partially because it's actually interesting to hear about jet propulsion and see what goes on at NASA's labs in Pasadena, CA, and it's a little funny to see NASA geek out over the band being there equally as much as the band is geeking out over being there. Everyone's geeking out, man. I'm digging that the band take their lyrics and story-lines seriously enough to really dig deeper into the topic and go check out the facility. Go watch the video and get your nerd on!
