Giant spider attacks space shuttle!


A giant spider attacked the Atlantis space shuttle as it attempted to blast off.



At least that's how it appeared when a spider crawled onto Nasa's launch camera at Cape Canaveral in Florida.

For 26 seconds, it could be seen on webcam appearing to take a bite out of the shuttle as it sat on the launch pad awaiting lift-off.

Then, just as abruptly as it appeared, the spider wandered off screen.
The Atlantis launch was eventually delayed - although the magnified arachnid was not to blame.

Faulty fuel tank sensors, a problem that has plagued Nasa since 2005, forced controllers to delay the mission until January 2 at the earliest.
