Endeavour Launch was rescheduled for 15th July, Wednesday


The Liftoff of the space shuttle Endeavour on the STS-127 mission has been rescheduled on 15th July, Wednesday at 6:03 p.m. EDT. Yesterday's attempt was canceled due to bad weather conditions in the launch area at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.

Anvil clouds and storm cells containing lightning flared up toward the end of the countdown, violating strict launch safety rules. Launch Integration Manager Mike Moses said that "Technically, we've been really clean the last two days with our vehicle,” of Endeavour's launch attempts on both Sunday and Monday. "It's just been the weather scenario that the Endeavour Launch was rescheduled."

The position is better on Wednesday, with only a 40 percent chance of weather conditions prohibiting liftoff.
