U.S. Air Force to Launch Boeing 'Mystery' Robotic Spacecraft X-37B Orbital Vehicle

I guess this X-37B will be the space vehicle of choice now that the Space Shuttle fleet is being retired.

After a decade of development, the Air Force this month plans to launch a robotic spacecraft resembling a small space shuttle to conduct technology tests in orbit and then glide home to a California runway.

The ultimate purpose of the X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle and details about the craft, which has been passed between several government agencies, however, remain a mystery as it is prepared for launch April 19 from Cape Canaveral, Fla.
