Scotty Beamed Up

Today marked the final voyage for James Doohan, or more familiarly known “Scotty” on the original television series Star Trek. James’ ashes were sent up with the Spaceloft XL rocket. Once out of Earths’ orbit, his remains will orbit the planet for generations to come. James’ ashes are included with 200 others on the rocket, so he won’t be lacking for company in his final resting space.

I think there couldn’t be a more fitting end for the actor. Knowing that he is up there in space looking down on us gives me a great deal of comfort. It’s said that more than 11,000 condolences where included with James’ remains. Perhaps his ashes will meet up with Gene Roddenberry’s, who was shot up out of the atmosphere in 1997. Live long and prosper, Scotty.
