STS-127 Launch Update

*Update* Mission managers at NASA have rescheduled the launch for Wednesday.  If Endeavour doesn’t launch, LRO/LCROSS will launch instead.

Today, NASA will make the decision on a new launch date for Endeavour after scrubbing the launch attempt on Saturday. The launch was scrubbed early on, before suit up, because of a leaky gaseous hydrogen venting system. If there is no delays in repairs, the launch is more than likely going to be rescheduled for Wednesday. If there is going to be a launch attempt on Wednesday, the LRO/LCROSS launch will have to be delayed to the 19th or 20th.
