OT: X-37C

Boeing’s has plans for an X-37C model, which would be nearly twice as long as the B version, with sufficient capacity for up to six astronauts. The X-37C could be controlled robotically – or by a human pilot. Once qualified for human flight, these vehicles could transport a mix of astronauts and cargo to the International Space Station. Pretty cool!
