The delay will give Nasa and the Mission Management Team time to asses whether anything was damaged as a result of the lightning strike.
The Mission Management Team are due to reconvene on Sunday, to review the data and decide if everything is A-OK for a Monday launch
Currently there is a 20 percent chance that the weather will cause a “no go”, so assuming everything is ok and the weather holds, Atlantis could launch at 4.04 pm EDT (21.04 GMT) on Monday.
