The ashes of the late James Doohan, Star Trek's 'Scotty,' are to be sent into space.
Doohan died of Alzheimer's disease and pneumonia at the age of 85 at his Washington home yesterday morning.
Before his death Doohan had discussed with his wife Wende the possibility of sending his ashes into space, like the show's creator Gene Roddenberry.
BBC News reports that Doohan's ashes will be sent on a Falcon 1 rocket launching later this year, which will also carry the ashes of Star Trek writer John Meredyth Lucas, who died in 2002.
