Shuttle Landing Delayed

More news from in and around the Highgate Park area as the scheduled landing of the shuttle Discovery at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida has been delayed for at least a day due to not so good weather conditions in Florida. Strong winds meant that the US space agency Nasa missed both Thursday landing possibilities.

The shuttle, which is returning from a mission to the International Space Station (ISS), will have to orbit the earth for a 14th day. The new landing slot is at 1754 (2154 GMT) on Friday. However the weather forecast for Friday is worse than Thursday and Saturday is only a little better. Nasa says if necessary it will consider the possibility of using a runway at Edwards Air Force Base in California.

As Discovery circled the Earth waiting for an opportunity to return, a new unmanned cargo ship was launched from Japan destined for the space station. It is carrying 4.5 tonnes of supplies.
