X-37B sort of looks like a shuttle, but China says it’s a weapon

"Industry analysts said the spacecraft could be a precursor to an orbiting weapon, capable of dropping bombs or disabling enemy satellites as it circles the globe." – Xinhua news agency.

(“could be.” It could be a way to transport monkeys from California back to California, too. It could be … lots of things. Doing PR for the aircraft is an easy job. No, we will not tell you launch date or time. Or place. No, we won’t tell you the return date. No, we won’t tell you what it’s carrying.

(Like the Air Force’s last and absolutely final statement on the non-crash at Roswell. First last answer: Very high altitude balloons listening for Soviet nuclear tests. Not buying that, huh. OK. Absolutely final answer: High altitude balloons dropping dummies wearing parachutes to test re-entry for space program.)

Fark again.
