Message to Edit: HTML is ON UBB Code is ON Smilies Legend	Originally posted by Robert Pearlman on 04-24-2014 06:53 PM As of today (April 24), OTV-3 has been in orbit for [URL=http://www.space.com/25611-x37b-military-space-plane-500-days.html]500 days[/URL]. <BLOCKQUOTE>[i]The current mission "seems long, but that's based off of the original [270-day] estimate. We don't have anything else to go on," [Brian Weeden, a technical adviser with the Secure World Foundation and a former orbital analyst with the Air Force] told Space.com. "And it's not long for other satellites. It's common for satellites, especially typical national security satellites that are well-designed, to be in orbit for years to decades."[/i]</BLOCKQUOTE>
