QUOTE (spacereference.com)
The launch of the H-IIA Launch Vehicle No. 8 (H-IIA F8) with the Advanced Land Observing Satellite "Daichi" (ALOS) onboard has been postponed after JAXA took some extra time to investigate a malfunction discovered in one of the ground facilities which monitors the temperature of the air conditioner for the payload fairing during countdown operations.

The new launch date has been set for January 24 (Tue), 2006 (Japan Standard Time, JST).

H-IIA boosters are shuttle-derived technology, similar (but much smaller) than future planned US manned-flight designs.
