I think it was Mike Darwin who answered this one in respect of a group that
planned to launch a probe out of the solar system containing DNA from people
who had paid about $50 for the privilege.

He said that the radiation in space would soon garble any DNA sent out that
way, unless well shielded. the amount of shielding required would produced
too heavy a ship to get off the ground.
