As it sped past a parked space shuttle after a landing at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Sunday, May 7, the US Air Force’s X-37B space spy plane looked about the size of a ladybug next to the retired former mainstay of the US space program.The Boeing-built X-37B carries no human crew, however, and was returning Sunday from a secret 718-day mission. It was launched from an Atlas-5 rocket in May 2015 on what was the program’s fourth mission, with a fifth planned for the future.These videos show the X-37B’s landing on a runway from two different angles.
