However, each mission has been progressively longer, as noted by Jim Chilton, a senior vice president for x-37B developer Boeing. Officials clarified that the period of the spacecraft to remain in orbit, including the purpose of the space mission, is still unknown.

Military's mystery space plane was sent back to orbit to honor health care workers and front line workers It was clarified that since the satellite mission costs several hundred million dollars, innovations should be assured being conducted straight out of the box. However, the report reiterated that no one knows what the space vehicle is used for which is why it is considered as a "mystery space plane." Testing technologies is the only credible explanation, which could help experts find new ways to launch future satellite missions.
