Has Beyond Burials had any sucsessful missions?

Open tab

Yes, Beyond Burials has successfully completed multiple missions with satellites carrying the loved ones of the families we serve, and they are currently in orbit.

How does the Beyond Burials process work?

Open tab

We appreciate the delicate nature of our service, which is why we work hand in hand with you through every step of the process.

Upon purchasing your selected memorial, a member of our team will schedule an intake call to ensure that all your questions are answered and walk you through what to expect. Following the intake call, you will receive a Beyond Burials kit containing a capsule to collect your symbolic remains sample. Once we receive your capsule, it will be prepared for placement in a Beyond Burials spacecraft for launch.

I want to be sure that my wishes are carried out. Can I plan my service in advance?

Open tab

Open tab

Our video team begins editing your memorial video soon after the launch and works to provide you and your family with a professionally edited video as quickly as possible.

Can I track the Beyond Burials Earth-orbiting spacecraft?

Open tab

Yes. Using a private website link which we will provide, you can view the location of any of the Earth-orbiting Beyond Burials memorial spacecraft.

Why launch only a symbolic portion of cremated remains?

Open tab

Spaceflight is a costly process. By launching only a symbolic portion of remains, we can offer an affordable service accessible by as many people as possible.

Space launches are challenging. What if the mission does not succeed?

Open tab

In the unlikely event, the initial mission is not successful; your remains will be placed on the next memorial service of the same type, at no additional cost.

For the Earth Orbit Service, how long will the cremated remains stay in the Earth’s orbit?

Open tab

The length of each orbital stay depends on the primary mission of each spacecraft. Still, you can expect remains to stay in orbit from months to hundreds of years, depending on the mission type. Beyond Burials spacecrafts are a secondary payload aboard each mission.

How are the cremated remains actually launched?

Open tab

Depending on the memorial selected, the remains are placed in a specially designed, individual Beyond Burials capsule. These capsules are then placed into the Beyond Burials spacecraft, which is attached to the rocket and launched into space.

How do you ship the kits?

Open tab

We use United States Postal Service (USPS).You will receive your Beyond Burials Kit within 1-3 weeks from your purchase date.

Why do you only use USPS services?

Open tab

UPS, FedEx, or DHL do not accept cremated remains for shipment.

What countries do you ship to?

Open tab

Beyond Burials serves customers from around the globe.

How can I place an order?

Open tab

Orders can be placed on our website at beyondburials.com. We do not currently provide the option to order by phone or through other payment types.
