Russia cancels Angara-A5 space rocket launch for 2nd time

Moscow, April 10 (UNI) Russia cancelled the launch of the Angara-A5 space rocket from the Vostochny Cosmodrome for a second time, Russia's state space corporation, Roscosmos, said Wednesday.
The cancellation was due to a failure of the engine launch control system, the company noted, adding that another attempt to launch the space rocket will be on Thursday.
On Tuesday, an issue with the pressurising system of the rocket's oxidizer tank led to the cancellation of the launch minutes before the scheduled time.
