Bob,
That's a bummer. Heard about the launch failure on one of today's morning news shows.
Saw this on line. Near the bottom talks about the 6 CubeSat payloads.
Last launch I was hoping to see go by the Jersey shore was out of Wallops Island, VA. It was the Orbital Sciences Antares rocket that blew up right above the pad on Oct 28, 2014.

Doesn't matter much now ;-) Looks like the thing tumbled out of control. I had 2U out of a 6U cubesat. Here's much of the guts of our payload:

Definitely not clutter.

It was the highlight of my day.  I stayed awake to watch the launch.
