"Heaven's Gate was an American UFO religious Millenarian group based in San Diego, California, founded in the early 1970s and led by Marshall Applewhite (1931-1997) and Bonnie Nettles (1927-1985).[1]

On March 26, 1997, police discovered the bodies of 39 members of the group who had committed mass suicide[2] in order to reach what they believed was an alien space craft following Comet Hale-Bopp.[3]"

I remember that, Wonder if they were going to the same MOTHERSHIP George Clinton fans believe in. And if they made it.. And noticing that Bonnie Nettles went before the crowd.
( George Clinton is the /was the “head” of the afro funk band Parlaiment. Having found a really potent strain of cannabis, he preached the Mothership was coming to take all his followers away.)
