(CNN) -- In the end, it was Scotty who got beamed up.

The ashes of late actor James Doohan, who played chief engineer Montgomery Scott in the original "Star Trek" television series and a series of subsequent films, were on the SpaceX rocket that launched a private spacecraft into orbit this week.

...

some of Doohan's cremated remains were among 320 sets on the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched Tuesday."
