Shuttle launch off until end of month to fix leak





Summary~Shuttle Discovery's final trip to space has been delayed until the end of November because of problems in its fuel tank. It has been canceled already 4 times in this week. They have been wanted to launch it but its taking some time to fix the shuttle. Discovery was very close to being launched friday but there was another problem to fix in its fuel tank. Only 3 astronauts will aboard Discovery unlike 6 when its been fixed.

Reaction~This doesnt really surprise me since Discovery has been NASA'S most traveled and oldest shuttle. I would have expected Discovery to have some situatins needing to be fixed because of this.
