Amateurs Spy On US Spy Plane
arshadk writes with this excerpt from Wired's Danger Room: "The X-37B has generated intense interest, long before it ever left the ground. Boeing originally developed the 29-foot unmanned craft — a kind of miniature Space Shuttle — for NASA. Then, the military took over in 2004, and the space plane went black. Its payloads were classified, its missions hush-hush. ... You can even see the space plane for yourself: The X-37B is traveling in a slightly elliptical orbit more than 200 miles up, swooping from 43 degrees north latitude to 43 degrees south."
Actually, that's true for 100% of the world's population.
Here's a handy chart to aid in identification.

Yeah, but that 95% doesn't have an X-37B, so it really doesn't matter, does it?
Our super-secret spy space-drone, our units of measurement. That's how we roll up in this bitch.
You are welcome on my lawn.
One thing you can be sure of - if you see a flying object, and it's unidentified, then it is a UFO.
When Wonder Woman sues you for patent infringement. Duh!

yes, yes, that's interesting but what we really want to know is when it will become self aware and start killing humans?
