SpaceX Set To Launch MYSTERIOUS X-37B Space Plane!
With the assistance of SpaceX, the highly classified X-37B spacecraft is on its way back into orbit. However, why is this space plane dubbed as mysterious? Let’s find out in today’s episode!
Hello everyone! Welcome back to Elon Musk Evolution, where we bring you the most recent news about Elon Musk and his multi billion-dollar companies, space news and the latest science and technology.

In preparation for its seventh mission in orbit, the United States military is getting ready to fly its top-secret X-37B space plane.
The unmanned vehicle, which is comparable of a miniature space shuttle, is scheduled to launch on Monday from the Kennedy Space Center in the United States of America during a launch window that will last for ten minutes and will begin at 8:14 p.m. Eastern Time. Due to the lack of favorable weather conditions at the launch site in Florida, the scheduled liftoff was postponed from Sunday.
For the very first time, the X-37B will be launched into orbit on a Falcon Heavy rocket that is operated by SpaceX.
Since it was first shown to the public more than a decade ago, the X-37B has been a captivating topic of discussion among the space community. This is mostly due to the mysterious nature of the tasks that it performs in low Earth orbit. Skywatchers have occasionally seen and photographed the space plane in the night sky using telescopes, despite the fact that they do not know its true purpose or location.
It is customary for the United States Space Force to withhold information regarding the secret aspects of the X-37B flights. As a result, there is a lack of information regarding the kinds of activities that the robotic vehicle engages in while it is in orbit.
According to the Space Force, the X-37B will carry out a number of tests during this future voyage, which has been given the designation OTV-7. These tests will include activities such as “experimenting with space domain awareness technologies and investigating the radiation effects to NASA materials.”
Before we delve into the mysterious X-37B space plane, here’s everything we know about SpaceX’s Powerful Falcon Heavy.
The Falcon Heavy has the capacity to lift 141,000 pounds, which is a mass that is greater than that of a 737 aircraft that is filled with passengers, crew, luggage, and fuel. 63,470 pounds is the maximum weight that the Delta IV Heavy rocket is capable of lifting. It is the next closest rocket.
The first stage of the Heavy is constructed out of three Falcon 9 cores, each of which has nine engines. Each of these 27 “Merlin engines” is capable of producing more than 5.13 million pounds of thrust when the vehicle is launched. The equivalent of this would be around eighteen 747 fleet aircraft
In order to transport heavy payloads into orbit, the Falcons will be utilized to transport them inside of composite fairings. During the delivery process to destinations in low Earth orbit (LEO), geosynchronous transfer orbit (GTO), and beyond, this safeguards anything from satellites to the Dragon spacecraft in SpaceX’s fleet.
