NASA and SpaceX launch date DELAYED: SpaceX’s Dragon flight test pushed back to March
Kathy Lueders, Commercial Crew Program manager, said: “There still are many critical steps to complete before launch and while we eagerly are anticipating these launches, we will step through our test flight preparations and readiness reviews.
“We are excited about seeing the hardware we have followed through development, integration, and ground testing move into flight.”
NASA announced in August last year the names of the first four astronauts who will fly the Crew Dragon module in 2019.
