The space shuttle Endeavorer that was scheduled to launch today drew the biggest crowds since the Apollo days. An estimate 500,000-750,000 people gathered to watch the launch. This massive crowd included the Obama family and Rep. Gabrielle Giffords the senator who was shot in the head during the Tuscon, Arizona shootings. Unfortunately all those people will have to wait at least 48 hours becuause problem discovered in the Auxiliary Power Unit 1 heaters. For more information you can follow NASA on twitter. (No, thats not a joke NASA actually has an official twitter)
