In October 2022, we shipped the completed HTV-X1 propulsion system to the factory in Kamakura, which manufactures the entire service module! The propulsion system consists of thrusters (small rocket engines) for orbit and attitude control, tanks for fuel and oxidizer, many pipes, sensors, valves, etc. 💨#JAXA #HTVX #開発日記
On July 1, we unpacked and installed the HTV-X1 pressurized module, which was delivered to the Tanegashima Space Center last year 👨🔧Through early September, work will be carried out to establish work procedures at the launch site, such as various tests and cargo loading!#JAXA #HTVX #開発日記
With the participation of astronaut Onishi and experts from JAXA and NASA, a test called CEIT was conducted at the Tanegashima Space Center to check the operability and safety of the HTV-X1 pressurization module and onboard equipment. 🔍 CEIT is being conducted in multiple parts, and we plan to conduct tests targeting service modules in the future.#JAXA #HTVX #開発日記
Development of automatic docking technology demonstration #JDOCX for HTV-X2 is also underway! Following the test in Japan, we brought the device to NASA's facility "SDTS", which can simulate more realistic movements during docking, and conducted a full-scale test 💻#JAXA #HTVX #開発日記

First one is scheduled to fly in 2021. With the normal delays, that would probably be 2025.
