The Boeing designed X-37B plane is about to take off on a new mission, and as per usual, no one really knows what it's doing and why.

The U.S Air Force is preparing to launch the Boeing designed X-37B, which is a space drone that is highly classified by the United States government. Due to the space plane being so classified, no one really knows what its missions are or what it's doing while it's off the ground, but what we do know is this will mark its sixth mission to date. The last mission the X-37B went on had the plane in the air for a total of 780 days, it was airborne from Sept. 7, 2017, until Oct. 27, 2019.

The missions are called OTV, which stands for Orbital Test Vehicle. This mission, in particular, is called OTV-6, and we can expect that the plane will be breaking the previous record it set. The Air Force hasn't disclosed what kind of payload the plane is carrying, but we do know that it isn't any kind of weaponry, or at least that is what the Air Force has said. The upcoming mission for the X-37B is scheduled to launch on May 16.

Did the U.S. bomb China using a weapon launched from space? Were the explosions covering up a plot to kill the president? The bizarre Tianjin disaster conspiracy theories revealed

Jokes a side, this could actually be used for such a weapon.

Small potatoes compared to what a Starship will be able to carry and do.

The X37B itself (not the cargo area) is only
29 feet (8.8 meters) long
9.5 feet (2.9 m) tall
wingspan just less than 15 feet (4.6 m).

Starship is so large you could put multiple X37Bs in it.

Is that actually something that exists?

Ohh yeah now i remeber the project, i saw a video long time ago why this project is not viable, the arguments were scientific and plausible so lets see if it will materialize in the future.


That is not a primary use of the rocket. That's only a "could it be done" scenario.

The ultimate goal should be to carry parts of a bigger spaceship into orbit and assemble it in orbit. Carry all the equipment, fuel, food and have a spaceship in orbit that can travel in the solar system. Imagine how much can be done with it. Humans along with labs and equipment can be sent to other planets and moons.
