Space Shuttle Landing

Space Shuttle Discovery won’t be landing today. Low-lying clouds and scattered showers kept the space agency from landing the shuttle at the Kennedy Space Center.

The crew will have four chances to land on Tuesday, two in Florida and two at Edwards Air Force Base in California.

The ship has enough supplies for the seven-member crew to stay in orbit until Wednesday.

The first landing attempt tomorrow morning is at 7:33 a.m. Eastern Time. Forecasters say the weather should be slightly better than it was for today.
