At 9:15 a.m., space shuttle Endeavour's liquid hydrogen tank reached the full mark and still showed no sign that hydrogen gas was leaking at unacceptable levels.
The fueling process at Kennedy Space Center's launch pad 39A is in the "stable replenish" mode, meaning liquid hydrogen that is boiling off is constantly being replaced to maintain a full tank.
So far, indications are that NASA has solved the gas leak problem that forced two launch scrubs for Endeavour last month.
NASA hopes to launch Endeavour on July 11.
