Star Trek couple 'buried' in space

Gene Roddenberry - the creator of Star Trek - will next year be 'buried' in space with his wife.
When Roddenberry died in 1991 his partner commissioned a company that specializes in "memorial spaceflights" to fulfill their dream of journeying through space together.
Over the past 17 years Celestis have developed rockets and capsules which can carry up to 7 grams of cremated remains into deep space.
Now after Majel Roddenberry passed away in December of last year they will finally fly through space together, albeit as little pots of ashes.
Trekkies are also being invited to submit messages of tribute which will be digitized and sent into space with the couple ... anyone who suggests "To boldly go where no couple has gone before" deserves a slap.
