MISSION: STS-113 - 16th ISS Flight (11A) - P1 Truss Segment VEHICLE: Endeavour/OV-105 TARGET LAUNCH DATE: Nov. 18, 2002 NET LAUNCH PERIOD: 7 - 11 p.m. TARGET LANDING DATE: Nov. 29, 2002 NET MISSION DURATION: 11 days SHUTTLE CREW: Wetherbee, Lockhart, Lopez-Alegria, Herrington ISS CREW UP: Bowersox, Budarin, Pettit ISS CREW DOWN: Korzun, Whitson, Treschev ORBITAL ALTITUDE AND INCLINATION: 122 nautical miles/51.6 degrees Shuttle Processing Note: At about 9:45 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 10, following the completion of tanking operations, NASA managers postponed the launch of Space Shuttle Endeavour on mission STS-113 due to higher than allowable oxygen levels in the orbiter's mid body. Launch has been tentatively set for no earlier than Monday, Nov. 18 so that technicians can troubleshoot and repair the leak. Detanking of Endeavour's external tank will begin early this morning, and over the next two days, both the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen in the Power Reactant Storage and Distribution System will be offloaded. Workers at the pad will gain access to the orbiter as early as Wednesday and begin to investigate the exact location and possible cause of the leak. At this time, managers do not feel that the P1 truss payload will need to be removed for workers to make a repair. Due to the delay, the astronauts will return to Johnson Space Center in Houston. -- end -- ------------------------------------------------------------- For automatic email subscriptions to this KSC originated press releases, send an Internet electronic mail message to mailto:ksc-news_release-subscribe@kscnews.ksc.nasa.gov.
