Posted: Updated:

VANDENBERG AIR FORCE BASE, Calif- Crews are preparing for the second landing of the X-37B, the Air Force's unmanned, reusable space plane.

The X-37B launched in March, from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. Since then, Vandenberg crews have been preparing. "The men and women of Team Vandenberg are ready to execute safe landing operations anytime and at a moment's notice," said Col. Nina Armagno, 30th Space Wing commander.

They are expecting the plane to land sometime in early to mid june. They do not yet know the exact date and time because it all depends on the weather.
