The launch of a SpaceX rocket ship with two NASA astronauts on a history-making flight into orbit was called off with 16 minutes to go in the countdown because of the danger of lightning. The launch will now take place on Saturday. The spacecraft was set to blast off Wednesday afternoon for the International Space Station. This would have been first launch with astronauts from US soil after almost a decade.
