All you fantasy thinkers are so wrong. The X-37 is a research craft, and nothing else. It tests new technology like lubricants and sensors in long-term space exposure, with the most critical aspect being the ability to examine the test objects after safely landing. It would be useless as any kind of space weapon, precisely because its orbit is so well known and tracked. As I've said before, anyone who thinks otherwise knows absolutely nothing about orbital mechanics.

Not to mention that pesky " non militarization of space " treaty. It might be a bit embarrassing to be caught breaking a treaty we fought so hard to implement.

Star Wars, the best and most successful psy,op in history. Brought USSR to her knees. Hell many Americans believe it still today. God Bless Ronald Reagan.
