Don't think it's a "loon". Flightradar lists it as a Raven Aerostar balloon. Probably weather. Quoting: MaxHeadroomIntrusion [link to twitter.com (secure)] |

Wikipedia says: "The company's high-altitude balloons are used by Loon LLC (formerly part of Google) to provide aerial, high-speed wireless internet to rural and remote areas. The company's high-altitude balloons are also used in scientific research by NASA and other research institutes and in military purposes by USA armed forces." |
