X-37B: The spacecraft is designed to fly itself autonomously during landings

If you know anything about terminology or computer programming then you know just how advanced this thing is by this statement.

Let me give you an example: For example, a Predator drone can fly itself or land itself whenever Satellite GPS contact with the human pilot (elsewhere on earth) is broken for any reason.

However, what they are saying here is completely different. IN other words this spacecraft is (DESIGNED) to land itself which is an entirely different thing. It means if no one was awake at Vandenburg this thing could land itself whether or not anyone was even there even if they arrived 20 or 24 hours later. This is quite a statement.
