Astrohumation, also known as a space burial, transinterment, or cosmoquy, is a form of transhumation and an Astronist practice of sending a corpse out into space as a form of burial or committal.
A form of astrohumation considered either as euthanasia, assisted suicide, or suicide is the action of sending a person still alive out into space without the possibility of retrieving their body; this specific form is known as prehumation.
