The Space Shuttle Endeavour was suppose to deliver the final piece of Japan’s Kibo laboratory today. She was suppose to take seven astronauts into space, including four that had never made the trip before. But that was before a hydrogen leak was found, which delayed the launch.

Now the launch has been postponed until July 11, 2009. This is actually the second time the launch was delayed. The shuttle was suppose to blast off on June 13 but it was delayed for the same leak. Lets hope NASA gets it right this time around.
