Lord British AKA Richard Garriott creator of Ultima smuggled Star Trek’s Scotty, Actor James Doohan abord the ISS in 2008, but it wasn't publicly known until 2020.
Just thought this was so cool the Ultima/Tabula Rasa guy who invented the RPG smuggled Scottys ashes aboard the ISS.
This article reveals that Richard Garriott, a private astronaut who visited the International Space Station in 2008, secretly brought the ashes of James Doohan, best known as Scotty from Star Trek, aboard the station. Garriott was contacted by Doohan's son and received the ashes, but due to time constraints, he couldn't follow the official protocol. Instead, he covertly placed some of the ashes behind the station's floor cladding.
