L minus 1 hour 15 minutes

According to NASA spokesman Bruce Buckingham a fuel sensor that has given NASA headaches in the past began acting up early Friday morning as space shuttle Atlantis' crew prepared for lift-off.
The agency is working to fix the problem and continuing with launch preparations.

The space shuttle is still expected to lift-off from Florida's Kennedy Space Centre at 15:40 GMT (11:40 EDT ).
