- JshWright 8y agoThose delays were to accommodate the station's schedule. It's possible this event may lead to an "undelay"
- azernik 8y agoISS scheduling is responsible for at most one month of that slip - DM-1's capsule will be ready in December, and was set to launch NET January because of station availability.
- JshWright 8y agoGiven that it's currently mid-October, moving up a month from January to December represents a pretty substantial chunk of the remaining time (I'm not suggesting NASA or SpaceX are willing, able, or interested in doing this, but it's not impossible)
- azernik 8y agoDepends on your baseline. Compared to their projected crewed launch of June, it's well within the margin of delays.
