CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- At NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Prelaunch Mission Management Team Chair Mike Moses talks to media about proceeding with space shuttle Discovery's launch countdown. Lift off had been postponed to evaluate a controller that showed an irregular power drop in Discovery's No. 3 engine. Now scheduled to launch Nov. 4 at 3:29 p.m. EDT, Discovery and its STS-133 crew will deliver the Permanent Multipurpose Module, packed with supplies and critical spare parts, as well as Robonaut 2, the dexterous humanoid astronaut helper, to the orbiting laboratory.
