    JAXA has announced the postponement the above launch (due originally for 
    close to the time I am writing this)  owing to "an incompatibility [which] 
    was found with the gas jet thruster for second stage attitude control when 
    propellant loading operations for the thruster were being carried out last 
    night."
    
    No date has been set and they indicate this may take time to fix:
