Eternal Ascent Society Reaches New Heights in Cremains Disposition
LAS VEGAS, NV— Convention goers sought out the Eternal Ascent Society booth at the National Funeral Directors Association Expo in Las Vegas, eager to learn more about licensure for this innovative
means of cremains disposition.
Following cremation, the deceased’s ashes are placed in a 5-foot biodegradable balloon. The balloon is then filled with helium inside the patented inflation chamber, which can be transported to any
chosen site at the family’s request.
The balloon is released and slowly ascends, expanding as it climbs, until it reaches a height of 28,000 to 30,000 feet (almost 6 miles) above the earth. The temperature at that altitude, 40 degrees below
zero, causes the balloon to freeze and then fracture, scattering the ashes of a loved one to the heavens.
Once licensed with the Eternal Ascent Society, funeral homes, crematories and cemeteries can offer to the families that they serve this beautiful alternative to the more common methods of scattering
the ashes of a Loved-One. With an increasing focus on personalization of services, families will certainly welcome this unique service as a truly meaningful way to say good-bye to their loved ones.
