First a hydrogen leak. Now a separate *helium* leak is causing a delay in NASA's Artemis 2 mission around the Moon.
The giant rocket is rolling off the launch pad, with the flight delayed to April 1 at the earliest.

#NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman responds to an independent panel's report on 2024's troubled #Starliner mission by putting the event in the agency's most serious category of anomalies - and declaring that astronauts won't ride on Starliners until corrective actions are taken.
