FOR THE CORPSE THAT HAS EVERYTHING

The company that brought us “burial” in space is now offering to send the ashes of your dead relatives to the moon. Houston-based Celestis Inc., which has been charging between $1,000 and $5,000 to send human ashes to a satellite where they can orbit the Earth for the next 100 years or so, is now selling the chance to send those ashes to the moon for a cool ten grand. The company has a half-dozen customers for the service already and expects to send around 1,000 capsules of ashes to the moon in late 2009 or early 2010. Book yours at MemorialSpaceFlights.com
