news hello everyone. thanks for joining me. i m alison camera was triggered with less than four minutes until launch. the computer that launches the rocket stop the countdown clock now officials are racing to learn why both astronauts are now back at crew quarters after leaving the capsule, a short time ago joining us now from the kennedy space center is cnn space and defense correspondent kristin fisher so kristinn obviously this is not the news that nasa or boeing wanted today. what happened? we just don t know yet and we re going to find out hopefully quite a bit more during a press conference that nasa, boeing, and the united launch alliance have called, which is set to start in exactly one hour. now, all we know right now is that there was an issue with the ground launch sequencer and that is the computer that s responsible for launching this rocket. it s essentially an automated process. once you get down that close to lift off and there was some kind of problem wit
trucks. because now that israel s in control, that would make it a target for hamas militants. and case in point being, that there have been rocket attacks on the carrier shalom crossing between israel and the gaza strip, which is also caused that crossing to be closed at times over the past few weeks. so it s incredibly important that the rafah crossing be reopened. and this is what these talks in cairo, do to resolve because the egyptians have been blaming israel. they said it out let these trump s go through until israel withdraws its forces from these border crossings, israel has said no, egypt just simply needs to open the border. so they re going to try to resolve this issue right now. one imagines trying to clear the air as well. and try to find some kind of mechanism to ensure that the flow of humanitarian aid resumes. but let s not forget but even the aid that was getting through the rafah crossing before it was closed was not enough now that that aid has been stopped they are
