                      LAUNCH POSTPONED...AGAIN

This morning's launch of NASA's Aura atmospheric chemistry satellite
from Vandenberg AFB was cancelled just before lift-off because of a
battery problem with the Delta II launch vehicle. The next launch
opportunity is July 15 between 03:02 and 03:05 PDT (10:02 and 10:05
UTC). At press time there has been no offical decision to proceed with
a 24-hour "recycle" (another launch attempt tomorrow morning).
