The remains of 152 people will be blasted into orbit next week on board Elon Musk's SpaceX Falcon Heavy.
The launch is scheduled to take place late Monday night in Florida, and while space aficionados can hardly contain their excitement, it'll be a far more emotional moment for those whose loved one's ashes are on board.
The families of the 152 deceased have organized the unique send-off through Celestis DNA - a company that works to place human remains on board various spacecrafts.
