NASA is taking a closer look at the effects of a lightning strike at the Space Shuttle Atlantis' launch pad Friday. The next launch attempt is at 4:04 p.m. EDT on Monday, Aug. 28.

Commander Brent Jett and his five crewmates will travel to the International Space Station to install a new 17-ton segment of the station's truss backbone, adding a new set of giant solar panels and batteries to the complex. Three spacewalks are planned.
