Now you can send your dead pets to space
Do all dogs go to heaven? Who knows, but now some dogs can go to space.
Starting this Fall, Celestis Inc. a Texas-based provider of space funerals (the company has already launched 12 “memorial space flights,” including that of departed Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry), will offer a new service to launch your cremated pet’s remains into outer space and back. Boasting the celestial slogan, “From the stars we are born, to the stars we will return,” the company will launch its first doggie space funeral in October.
The company’s new pet division, Celestis Pets, is partnering with a San Diego-based pet “transition center” that will handle the animal’s remains before Celestis Pets lets you choose from a variety of final space-launch packages.
