The now quartet pop stars seem to be having the time of their lives exploring all the high-tech gadgets of NASA. Directed by Ben Winston, the video shows the band tinkering with the NASA WB-57 High Altitude Research Aircraft and NASA T-38 aircraft jets.

One Direction released the single "Drag Me Down" on July 31 and has topped iTunes in 90 countries worldwide. It currently has over 40 million streams in Spotify, setting double records as the highest first-day streams for a single globally and highest first-week streams in U.K. history.

In the video, Harry Styles interacted with a Robonaut that mimicked his moves. Liam Payne got the chance to be inside a replica of the International Space Station while Niall Horan experienced what it's like to be in a Partial Gravity Stimulator. Not to be outdone is Louis Tomlinson who did a test drive on the Space Exploration Vehicle rover.

The group showed how they prepared for their space mission while belting out the ballad composed by Jamie Scott, Julian Bunetta, and John Ryan. This video is awesome on all levels. Billboard even applauded the band's spectacular music video, saying that the fans were right when they said the boys were made of the right stuff.
