Karol's Spacedusting
Raising some cash to send Dad's ash back into Spacedust!
Napier, Hawke's Bay
For those who knew Karol Klimek, know how passionate he was towards life!
One of his favorite topics after a tipple was space dust,
he would spring to life with enthusiasm upon the subject,
and exclaim how we are all products of space dust.
He would spurt out facts and figures and infect those around him with his excitement!
This is my chance! To transform some of him back into space dust!
There's a Kiwi company called StardustMe, offering to send a small engraved urn of ashes into space on an Elon musk satellite.
The capsule containing the ashes will orbit the earth for around 5 years mounted in a state-of-the-art satellite. Eventually, in a breath-taking finale, the capsule will harmlessly re-enter the Earth’s atmosphere, blazing as a shooting star.
We can observe the ashes crossing the night sky in real-time, and receive notifications when the satellite carrying the ashes will be passing over our location.

Karol’s Spacedusting! 11 November 2022
Thank you all so much for your donations.
We got the last spot for the first ever SpacedustMe launch! 🚀
Dad’s ashes are now securely sealed in its own capsule (token) and the personal messages were engraved and completed today.
The launch is scheduled for either the 18th or 19th of January.
My family will likely be having our own launch party, with hopefully the live stream of the launch on our TV.
It’s happening 🥲
Thanks again, and Geronimo Dad! x
