Dragon solar array concerns driving duration of first crewed test flight
From SpaceFlightNow.com:
"NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley will be geared up for the long haul when they launch from the Kennedy Space Center on a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft later this month, but they won’t know exactly how long they will be in orbit until they are already aboard the International Space Station."
There's a lot pf preamble, but they finally get to explaining the situation in the second half of the article.
