Ground control to Major Tom. We're sending a special treat your way.

The UK's Royal Mail has printed 52 tribute stamps commemorating the 52 years of David Bowie's music career. According to The Gaurdian, they've been attached to helium balloons and launched into space. When they burst, they'll plummet to earth, honoring The Man Who Fell to Earth.

Fans can predict where the stamps will land for a chance to win one of the limited edition covers. The stamps are also now available for purchase.
