With a registration price starting at $ 2,490, each customer will receive a dedicated device to hold the body ash before sending it back to the company. Falcon 9 missiles will bring the spacecraft containing this device into orbit.

The spacecraft containing the deceased will return on orbit for two years. The family and friends of the deceased can follow the itinerary of the spaceship using an application that runs on two iOS and Android operating systems.

After two years, the spacecraft will enter the atmosphere and burn, glowing like a shooting star.

So far, 100 customers have registered for this service, although SpaceX has not set a date to launch a spacecraft to orbit.
