Mysterious Air Force Plane Lands After Two Years in Space

Record-breaking flight...

The mysterious Air Force X-37B.

The US military's X-37B space plane landed at NASA's Kennedy Space Center on Sunday, ending its record-breaking 718-day orbit with a sonic boom during its first landing in Florida, Christopher Woody reports on businessinsider.com.

The US Air Force has two X-37B Orbital Test Vehicles, which it calls its "newest and most advanced reentry spacecraft."
