The CRS-25 flight had been scheduled to launch on July 11.
Now, in a
dated June 28, NASA wrote that the additional delay until at least July 14"supports ongoing Dragon spacecraft inspections" and the"repair and replacement of any components that could have degraded by exposure" to hydrazine vapor. While diagnosing this hydrazine issue, SpaceX made the determination to also replace the main parachutes on the Dragon spacecraft so that a more detailed inspection of the previously installed chutes could be conducted.
As its name suggests, CRS-25 will mark the 25th time that SpaceX has sent a robotic resupply craft to the International Space Station for NASA. It will be the third mission for this particular Dragon spacecraft, which also made resupply runs to the orbiting lab in December 2020 and August 2021.
