    TIMOTHY LEARY

    Seven grams of Leary's ashes were arranged by his friend at Celestis to be buried in space aboard a rocket carrying the remains of 24 other people including Gene Roddenberry (creator of Star Trek), Gerard O'Neill (space physicist), Krafft Ehricke (rocket scientist), and others. A Pegasus rocket containing their remains was launched on April 21, 1997, and remained in orbit for six years until it burnt up in the atmosphere.

    To complete the picture, Krafft Ehricke mentioned in the above response, is the co-author of "The Mars Project" mentioned in Brian's question.

    "In 1948 Ehricke wrote a book with Wernher von Braun, The Mars Project, which detailed how man could travel to Mars using a ferry system."

    The best way to explain this quiz is to give an example. 'Out of Africa' + 'Sleepers'. The answer is: 'Kramer vs. Kramer'. Meryl Streep was in 'Out of Africa', and Dustin Hoffman was in 'Sleepers'. They were in 'Kramer vs. Kramer' together. Good luck!
