shuttle scrub
The shuttle launch has been scrubbed until at least Friday morning.
The computers aborted at T-0:31 because two attempts to reconfigure
the on-board computers for a slightly low oxygen pressure failed.
They recycled the count to T-20:00, but found that the lubrication
pressure in two of the three Auxiliary Power Units (APU) was too high,
and they don't know why.  They hope to launch on Friday, but the
weather forecast isn't promising.
