Here is a web page with a little song ditty dedicated to Gene Shoemaker,
the first person to have his ashes strewn on the Moon (via the final
collision of the Lunar Prospector spacecraft)...
http://astrogeology.usgs.gov/About/People/GeneShoemaker/ShmkrLyrics.html
There was an interesting article in the Monday June 16, 2008 AZ
Republic commemorating Shoemaker and his life work.
