It is called a "mummy".
Joseph embalmed it.
It depends. If the person has died, and opted to be embalmed, they are placed in a casket, which is where they stay before burial. If the ceremony isn't right away, they embalm the body, and put it in a cooler. To preserve it
No. It's true that his body has been preserved pretty well, but the Catholic Church does not consider it to be incorrupt in the sense that it is a miracle. His body had been thoroughly embalmed before burial and was sealed in a series of caskets and these factors prevented decomposition.

Embalming is the replacement of the blood from a dead body with embalming fluid, particularly a solution of water and formaldehyde, to preserve the body. It became popular in the U.S. after the body of Abraham Lincoln toured the country after being embalmed. Also, some believe that embalming was practiced as a way to make sure a body is dead, thereby preventing the accidental burial of a living person.

In Louisiana I think the law is that a body must be embalmed unless the burial takes place within 24 hours of the death. Senator Kennedy's body will NOT be buried within 24 hours, but he did not die nor will he be buried in Louisiana. I would like to know more, though.
