Scotty joins McCoy in the Final Frontier.
James Doohan, who transported the crew of the "Star Trek" television series through space on the command "Beam me up, Scotty," died at the age of 85. His wife Wendy plans to send the actor's ashes into space. They are to use Space Services Inc., a Texas-based company that rocketed the remains of "Star Trek" creator Gene Roddenberry and 1960s drug guru Timothy Leary into the firmament. Besides helping Capt. Kirk save the universe many times, Doohan served as a Canadian soldier in the Allied force that landed in Normandy on D-Day in June 1944. He was shot six times and lost a finger on Juno Beach, but he returned to duty to become a military pilot.
