NASA UPDATES MEDIA ABOUT SPACE SHUTTLE LAUNCH STATUS
Space Shuttle managers will brief reporters this afternoon about NASA's
Space Shuttle Return to Flight mission (STS-114). The news conference starts
no
earlier than 5:30 p.m. EDT, and it will be carried live on NASA TV from the
Kennedy Space Center, Fla.
Managers and engineers are meeting today to review data and possible
troubleshooting plans for a liquid hydrogen low-level fuel sensor inside the
External Tank. The sensor failed a routine pre-launch check during the
launch
countdown Wednesday, causing mission managers to postpone Discovery?s first
launch attempt.
A new official launch date will be scheduled when a troubleshooting plan is
complete and engineers are working on a solution.
NASA TV is carried by MPEG-2 digital signal accessed via satellite AMC-6, at
72
degrees west longitude, transponder 17C, 4040 MHz, vertical polarization. In
Alaska and Hawaii, it's available in analog through Return to Flight on
AMC-7, at
137 degrees west longitude, Transponder 18, at 4060 MHz, vertical
polarization,
audio at 6.8 MHz. Today?s news conference is available on the Internet at:
