TL;DR Summary

Japan's space agency JAXA has delayed the launch of a H-2A rocket, which was scheduled for May, to no earlier than August due to an ongoing investigation into the failed launch of H3 rocket in March. The H-2A rocket was supposed to carry the X-Ray Imaging and Spectroscopy Mission (XRISM) and the Smart Lander for Investigating Moon (SLIM). The delay will leave two Japanese space missions grounded for several more months.
