Hewlett Packard's iPAQ h5550 will be integrated into TransOrbital's TrailBlazer spacecraft to allow wireless communications during the Moon mission.
I wonder what their brainstorming sessions were like.

"How 'bout we run a wire, a real long one..."

"Wireless! Here's my Palm Pilot! Let's go!"
"One thing that's nice about the Moon, is that no one's going to come up and destroy your database."
That's what they think, but when Brent gives her a psychological anomaly so she thinks she can fly to the Moon, they better be prepared.
A hardened capsule will protect about 22 pounds (10 kilograms) of... cremated remains!
"OOOOOOOOOO!!!! Pick me! Pick me! I wanna go!!!"

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, a Lunar burial is a must. I wonder who it is. Mybe the designer's mother or something.

Guess what!?! For the price of three visits to camp, you can send ONE GRAM of stuff to the Moon!!!!!! Or, if you're a cheap-o, for the price of a NASA T-shirt, you can send a personal message.

If you want to waste your money, that's your business, but if I was you, I'd wait a few years. It'll be much cheaper.

Of course I'd go to camp! You're gonna waste all that money to send something to the Moon for what? Nothin' but a cheap computer-generated certificate.

Why pay to have your ashes sent to the moon? That's the one that still gets me. You're dead for crying out loud.

I think it's be awesome to be buried on the Moon. Imagine if you never got the chance to go yourself, but it was your dream. What you didn't accomplish in real life can be yours afterlife.

It would be good to have your ashes on the moon.......What about Mars? It represents your happiness in a place you want to be.

Note: It's only a good thing if you're dead......

Still, you're dead already give it a rest!! To me it's like people who are buried in their cars and stuff.

Even though it's cool to be buried on the moon, I'd still rather go to Space Camp three times. It's something I'd enjoy while I was alive, but how would I know if I was buried on the moon or not anyway? :?:
