Multi purpose (Score: 1) by billshooterofbul@pipedot.org on 2014-05-01 14:09 (#1A2) I'm sure there are many things its doing, testing the space plane, optics, any tests that are too dangerous to do on the ISS. Its like having a private US space station, without the need for life support or space for humans.
