When I was little I thought that when you died an angel would come down to earth and wrap you in plastic wrap and carry you to heaven (or hell, if you were bad.)
Then, when you got into space you would become alive again so you could see what space looked like. Also, I belived that if you were famous or a good person, God, Mary, or Jesus would carry you to heaven instead since you were special.
