-A secret space shuttle was launched on May 20th, 2015 from Cape Canaveral, Florida.
-The launch didn’t receive a lot of press but now people are starting to question the craft.
-The shuttle, known as X-37B, is on it’s fourth mission but doing what… no one knows.
-The last mission completed lasted 675 days and the current one is already at 500 days. Considering the craft was designed for just 270 day missions, this does add to the mystery to the situation
-Designed by Boeing as the most advanced re-entry spacecraft, the X-37B has a wingspan of only 15 feet and weighs around 11,000 pounds.
-In comparison it’s TINY when put side by side with the space shuttle orbiter
-It has been stated that the X-37B is flying at a lower than normal orbit which might suggest they are testing out new propulsion technology.
-There have been numerous different theories why the unmanned shuttle is up there:
It’s a spy plane, spying on the chinese
It’s a space bomber which is even more unlikely
The craft is up there to take out satellites which would be quite evident if that actually started happening
The X-37B is deploying satellites which is quite possible, although how many could it deploy being such a small craft itself

This is one of those mysteries that will probably revealed in time just not right away
