Moon Express, an Indo-American firm already licensed to land a spacecraft on the lunar surface, decided to place the human ashes to the Moon at USD 3 million per kilo.

Naveen Jain, an Indian-American co-founder of the company already got a license from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to land a spacecraft on the Earth's satellite, which will be successfully executed by 2017, according to NDTV. Moon Express is the first private company with space mission got the approval from the government to launch a spacecraft to the Lunar.

In the Moon, the robot should run at least 500 meters distance through the surface and they should transfer HD videos and images of it to the Earth, Lunar Xprize reported.

US government's new space policy may encourage all the aspirants and private firms to achieve the aim of landing on the Moon. As a part of the initial attempt, the company will be processing with a mission of launching a robotic spacecraft on the moon the source said.

The mission will be executed by a small rocket intended to manufacture for the launching of small satellites through earth's bottom part of the orbit. The specialty of the engine in the lander is it is already set for a travel of more than 200,000 miles from the Earth to the Moon.
