Not beamed up far enough

South African billionaire Elon Musk is not popular with Trekkies around the world. One of Musk’s rockets, carrying the ashes of James Doohan, the actor who played Star Trek’s Scotty, exploded, scattering his remains and those of more than 200 other people 217km above the Pacific. Musk attended Bryanston and Pretoria Boys’ High School. He became a wealthy Internet entrepreneur in the USA.
