It had initially planned to resume the test on April 9th to accommodate Axiom’s Space historic Ax-1 flight but announced today it was further delaying the trial to the start of next week. It also announced it would
modify the test after engineers noticed a problem with a helium check
valve designed to prevent the gas from escaping the SLS. The modified
test will see NASA primarily focus on fueling the rocket's core stage,
with “minimal propellant operations" of its upper stage.
