It's uh ... (sniffs contents of bottle) It's green.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Florida (Reuters) - When a privately owned rocket blasts off for a trial run to the International Space Station on Tuesday, it will be carrying more than food and supplies for the crew.

Tucked into the rocket's second stage are cremated remains of more than 300 hard core space fans finally making it into the final frontier.

Falcon 9 carries a secondary payload as well - a container holding lipstick-tube-sized canisters filled with cremated remains. The deceased include Mercury astronaut Gordon Cooper, who died in 2004, and actor James Doohan, who portrayed chief engineer Montgomery "Scotty" Scott on the original Star Trek television series. Doohan died in 2005.
