Failed Rocket Launch Results in Recovery of Astronaut's Cremated Remains.

TL;DR Summary
Over 100 capsules containing cremated human remains, including those of a late NASA astronaut and a chemist, have been recovered after a rocket carrying them for a space memorial service exploded over the New Mexico desert. The rocket was also carrying over a dozen student experiment payloads for NASA, but the space agency is not looking to recover its payload. The recovered payloads will get to fly again on board the company’s next mission, Perseverance Flight, which will be scheduled to take place “as soon as UP and Spaceport America complete their investigation and any required fixes are implemented.”
