One Direction are clear for take off.

The foursome were reportedly given clearance to shoot their video for "Drag Me Down" at NASA Space Center in Houston, Texas. According to MailOnline, 1D were granted access to the airfields, training equipment and facilities.

No word if they will actually be going to space, but if they do, luckily Louis has experience.

The video is being directed once again by longtime 1D collaborator Ben Winston, who directed "Story Of My Life," "Night Changes," and "You and I." This will also be the first video without fifth member Zayn Malik, who left the group in March.

Not too many details are known about the video, but some sneaky fans managed to find their way on set to snap a few pics.

Not too sure what is going on here.

But how adorable does Niall look?
