X-37B? They already launched it late last year.

a reply to: Zaphod58

There are two X-37Bs, iirc. However, the next scheduled launch isn't until next year.

penroc, do you have a source that says otherwise?

Yes, I know there are two. But to date, they've only overlapped them when one was nearing the end of its mission. There's no evidence that they're ending the mission that just started in September.

The website linked on the previous page had a headline that SpaceX was preparing to launch one the next week, but it was written in September of last year if you open the article.

a reply to: Zaphod58

gotcha. I ought to have clicked.

Has anyone checked to see if the X-37 shifted orbit recently?

It was over Syria earlier today.
