Space Shuttle launches after one-month delay
The space shuttle Discovery lifted off Sunday evening on a mission to the international space station, where Discovery will deliver supplies needed to expand the station’s crew to six people. The shuttle launched at 7:43 p.m. Sunday, after NASA engineers repaired a leaky gas line. The hydrogen leak caused the cancellation of Wednesday’s planned launch. Lead shuttle flight director Mike Moses said repairs on the hydrogen gas vent line went smoothly. The line funnels flammable hydrogen away from the launch pad so it does not present a fire risk during takeoff. – From CNN
