I thought it was mentioned somewhere (but I can't find it), but there were several
loses because of this launch failure.
Quote:
Lost along with the rocket were three small satellites, one for the Department of Defense and two for NASA, including an experimental solar sail, NanoSail-D.
Gone too were the ashes of 208 people including James Doohan, better known as "Scotty" of Star Trek fame, who had paid to have their remains scattered in space.

I really sorry to see the loss of the Nanosail satellite.
