NASAKennedy on Twitter is reporting the launch today has been scrubbed due to the heater problem on the Auxiliary Power Unit No. 1. With an expected turnaround of 48 hours, NASA says the next launch attempt isn’t likely to happen before Sunday at 14:59 EDT (19:59 BST).

Update: NASA now says the Launch will be no earlier than Monday at 14:33 EDT (19:33 BST)

The NASATV feed in the previous post will be showing a press conference later this afternoon/evening at 16:00 EDT (21:00 BST) today, so keep watching for the latest news.

And we’ll see you back here for the second launch attempt with live NASATV coverage!
