In the US, the launch of the first privately-built spacecraft to the International Space Station is being postponed after the rocket failed to launch this morning.

Space-X aborted the launch of its Dragon capsule after a technical issue inside one of the rocket's nine engines.

NASA said the next opportunity to launch will be early on Tuesday morning.
