"Celestis is a company that launches cremated human remains into space, a procedure known as a space burial. It is an affiliate company of Space Services Inc. The company purchases launches as a secondary payload on various rockets, and launches samples of many peoples' cremated remains on one launch. Launching an individual's entire cremated remains (which weigh between four to eight pounds) would be prohibitively expensive for most people, so Celestis launches 1 gram or 7 gram samples of cremated remains so as to provide an affordable service."

На сайте самой компании есть прейскурант.

Капсулу с 1 или 7 граммами пепла (2 или 14 соответственно, если кремированных двое) могут на выбор послать:
А) в космос, где она испытает невесомость, а потом вернётся обратно.
Б) на земную орбиту, где она будет обращаться вместе со спутником, а потом сгорит в атмосфере.
В) на лунную поверхность
Г) за пределы Солнечной Системы, на Вояджере

"Voyager missions truly offer an opportunity to be at one with the cosmos, on a mission of exploration."
