<p>Space shuttle Discovery will be waiting a little longer for its final flight.</p>
<p>Nasa has put off Discovery&#8217;s launch until at least December 3 while it continues to make repairs.</p>
<p>Discovery was grounded two weeks ago by a hydrogen gas leak that cropped up during fuelling. Later, cracks were found in Discovery&#8217;s fuel tank, underneath a crack in the tank&#8217;s foam insulation.</p>
<p>The shuttle will carry a crew of seven and a load of supplies to the International Space Station.</p>
<p>Nasa is retiring the fleet and closing its shuttle programme next year after three decades. </p>
<p>Discovery is the oldest and most travelled shuttle.</p>
