Endeavour fueled for launch after lightning delay

Endeavour had been scheduled to launch Saturday night, but a severe lightning storm at the pad Friday raised concerns that some critical systems might have been damaged. Overnight checks found no problems, however.

NASA also said there were no hydrogen leaks, which caused two launch delays in June.
