NASA to try launch again
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — NASA is unsure what caused the hydrogen gas leak that prevented the space shuttle Discovery from flying but will attempt another launch today. Shuttle managers are hopeful repairs at the launch pad have solved the problem. There’s "a potential risk” that the leak will recur, said Mike Moses, chairman of the mission management team. That would mean yet another delay for the international space station construction mission, which already is running more than a month late. NASA has until Tuesday to launch Discovery before having to wait until March 26.
