Secret US Space Plane Lands After Two Year Mission

The United States Air Force's X-37 B space plane has successfully landed in Florida after its two-year orbital flight, according to reports.

The unmanned plane touched down early yesterday morning after 780 days orbiting the Earth. The Air Force deployed the plane, which is about the size of a small bus in 2017. It is solar powered and has a mini-payload area to conduct experiments.

The Air Force has stressed the importance of reusable space crafts, but won’t say the exact nature of the flights as that info is classified.
