About three months of fuel searching, Dragon X will now making a preparation for the Potassium Nitrate (KNO3) fuel which was expected to arrive to Dragon X tomorrow. After the fuel arrived to Dragon X, it will then be stored in the Space Vehicle Assembly Center (SVAC) until the Chinese New Year celebration end.
Dragon X Team will had a meeting on planning some tests onto the Potassium Nitrate fuel before it was installed into Galaxy X1 for launch. Other wise, maybe that the launch date for Galaxy X1 Development Flight on 17 February 2012, Friday will be again delayed to 2 to 3 weeks later due the the experimental tests of the fuel safety and functional.
