Shuttle Launch Slips One Day
The last launch of space shuttle Discovery has slipped one day to November 2 at 4:17 pm EDT. According to NASA’s shuttle website:
“Managers are meeting to discuss the plan to repair helium and nitrogen leaks in the pressurization portion of space shuttle Discovery’s right-hand Orbital Maneuvering System (OMS) pod. The leaks must be fixed before launch and the decision was made to delay picking up the launch countdown by at least a day.”
