FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda
A SpaceX spokesman said engineers would look into the causes, but that the
issue was not believed to be something entirely new.
Another attempt to launch the unmanned rocket will take place on Tuesday if
the problem can be fixed.
SpaceX is among five private companies who are vying to transport cargo and
eventually astronauts into orbit following the retirement of NASA’s space
shuttle last year.
SpaceX’s Dragon Capsule, which is carrying 1,000lbs of provisions for
astronauts on board the ISS, was to be the first private space vehicle to
attempt to dock with the space station.
The craft was loaded with non-essential supplies including half a tonne of
food and other pantry items in case the flight went awry.
The Dragon Capsule is scheduled to operate in space for around three weeks,
including the rendezvous with the space station.
The flight was due to be a key test for the company and NASA as they change
the fundamental approach to space flight, which until now has been carried
out by national space agencies rather than private companies.
A statement on NASA’s website said: “NASA engineers and flight
controllers are closely working with SpaceX ahead of this flight to
coordinate the intricate approach, rendezvous and birthing plans needed for
this historic demonstration mission to the International Space Station.
“Early data shows that the chamber pressure on engine 5 was high. The
teams will continue to look at the data and assess a launch attempt on May
22.”
