許多怪事發生在農曆七月，似乎大家也司空見慣，但是可以讓死者長眠宇宙，這好像是第一次聽見，近日由美國推出的「太空葬禮」全套服務，聲稱只要6萬元台幣即可讓死者長眠外太空，特別地是家屬甚至可透過手機APP追蹤骨灰飄散何處！
據美國博客新聞網站（gawker）報導，國外葬禮服務層出不窮，有人將死者骨灰製成黑膠唱片或戒指永遠保存、紀念，而這項近日推出的「太空葬禮」，可式跌破大家眼鏡。
據悉，這項名為「極樂世界」的特殊服務，會將死者的骨灰從輕軌道發送至太空，環繞地球幾個月之後，
骨灰盒將重新進入大氣層並燃燒為絢爛的火球。此外，親屬們可以透過APP追蹤骨灰行蹤，甚至還有機會觀看直播衛星發射。
業者表示，目前只開放美國境內的訂單，且申請此項服務程序相當簡單，只需到他們網站預約，待公司寄來一個膠囊，將骨灰裝進膠囊裡再回寄給對方就完成了，雖然目前只開放美國境內的訂單，但業者表示，預計未來將陸續開放接受其他國家的預約。

For Just Under $2K, You Can Have A Burial in Space

Funeral tech is booming. From alkaline hydrolysis, which disposes of one's remains in the most environmentally-friendly way, to rings with diamonds made of a loved one's ashes, the future is now in terms of personalizing your departure from this mortal coil. Today marks yet another milestone in body disposal: the relatively cheap space burial.
A start-up called Elysium Space will send your cremated remains into orbit for the cheap price of $1,990. Your remains will launch into low orbit, and circle the Earth for a few months before you re-enter the atmosphere and burn up in an awesome fireball.
Not only will you get to experience the ride of your afterlife, but your family and loved one's will be able to follow along on your final journey through an iPhone App. The whole thing couldn't be more fun (besides the being dead part).
While we spend our lives bound to this Earth, dreaming of going into space in our brief lifetimes, we might just have a chance to do so right after them. The future, man, it gets weird.

都已經重新進入大氣層了, 跟在地球上燒掉好像也沒差多少?
本來還以為他們想把遺體整具送到外太空 任它飄留..
