Shuttle remains grounded

It appears that the shuttle’s fuel sensor problem may be harder to find than expected; consequently the Discovery shuttle missed the first launch attempt for this long-awaited return to flight but they remain hopeful for a July launch. OK, so it’s not your average fuel gauge sensor and the propellant happens to be super-cooled liquid hydrogen and oxygen; you don’t want any nasty surprises with that stuff!
