Mars and all its inhabitants will get to hear will.i.am’s new song before anyone else in the galaxy.

Tomorrow (August 28), will.i.am premieres his new song “Reach For The Stars” from the Mars Curiosity Rover.

The song, which is about his ”passion for science, technology and space exploration,” will debut during a special NASA press event that is geared towards kids and science education.  Will.i.am plans to announce a new science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics initiative (featuring assets from NASA) through his i.am.angel foundation.

Members of the team that successfully landed the Curiosity Rover on Mars earlier this month will also share the latest findings from the Red Planet.

The event, which takes place at 1 PM PDT (4 PM EDT)  in Pasadena, California, will be streamed live on NASA TV.  Go here for more information on the premiere and event.
