Top secret American spy plane returns to Earth after seven months... but U.S. still won't say what it was doing in space
The U.S.'s first unmanned re-entry spacecraft landed at an airfield today, seven months after it was launched.
The X-37B's exact purpose remained shrouded in secrecy when it touched-down at at Vandenberg Air Force Base on the California coast 130 miles north west of Los Angeles.
It was launched by an Atlas 5 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on April 22, with a maximum mission duration of 270 days and is suspected of being an advanced spy plane.
The rest of the article is a yawner, as it basically tells you nothing more than these three sentences. But that's what's intriguing: One knows nothing more about Why it went on a Seven Month Mission. Words were strung together, but nothing was said. So what is it's real purpose?
