Engineers today detected a possible hydrogen leak in the Number
2 main engine of the Challenger.  The problem lies in a fuel
line leading to the augmented spark igniter, which plays a part
of the combustion of oxygen and hydrogen in the engine.  The
leak has not yet been confirmed, and NASA has not decided what
action to take.
