I remember reading that!
"And what do you think, Bikkhus; are the Naff-Nebulans worthy of hearing the Dhamma, speaking the Dhamma, living by the Dhamma?"
"Oh Blessed one, we think the Naff Nebulans are worthy of hearing the Dhamma, speaking the Dhamma, living by the Dhamma!
In fact, we are led to believe they're a dab hand with the stone-Mason's hammer and chisel, and might well carve out an effigy of you on a distant, little-known planet called 'Mars' not a star's throw from here...honest, guv!"

Oh, there was something from SN15 .6.7, about going out to the Eastern realm, the Western realm, the Northern realm, the Southern realm and the Spiny realm. It was a little vague as parts had been lost to decay or in what appeared to be remains of ice cream dropped on it...
SN15 .7.4 - B'gosh, fedrica, you are right!
