And we were too scared to shoot it down. This is how an EMP will eventually get us.

The USAF could have snagged this object and attached a tow-line to it, taken it down for investigation.
So... none of what we are hearing passes the sniff test yet.
 Quoting: Tie Nylon


Unless it has some device in it that would make it detonate at a certain altitude
 Quoting: SpinalCracker


Possible, yep. Although that design would also limit any retrieval procedure for the Chinese.

The one thing a "surveillance balloon" can do that a spy satellite cannot do is act as a delivery system.

They were checking Military hardware in Montana.

If we retaliate, they’ll cut us off economically, that’s why it wasn’t shot down.

They’re on the Russian’s side. This event confirmed that to our governments.

That’s my take.

This is just the swamp testing to see just how close WE are to accepting IDIOCRICY as our reality.

A Chinese Balloon SPY craft? It's pure LUNACY!

WELL Our COunterintelligience TSCM Technical Surveillance Countermeasures knew within minutes of scanning/sweeping the technology hanging from the balloon that looks like a satellite with solar panels and determine what it was doing ,which would be an arry of scenarios that is to much explain here..

People really need to revisit how hot air balloons work and how they are controlled....IF we did it would quickly reveal just how absolutely RIDICULOUS this entire story is.

Point to point comms from sat uplinks and downlinks cannot be surveilled without being 'in the beam'. Malmstrom or (?) sat comms are being received by the balloon. Mil encryption is rudimentary and will be decrypted later. Malmstrom is a working base with 150 ballistic missles.

What do you think the Chinese or Russians would do in this situation if things were reversed? Yeah, they’d shoot it down. There is a foreign intelligence gathering tool hovering over our sensitive military areas !!!!!

I would also have a “civilian aircraft “ Over Xi’s house too.

Its just crazy that it was even allowed to get close, unbelievable. It shows just how weak and ineffective the United States is. All on display for every country, but especially countries that hate us the most.

It's primarily for meteorological study.

The fact that it can kill Americans with chemical and biological agents is only a secondary function.

Yeah? You actually believe China was able to steer this balloon simply by adjusting it's flight level to coincide with wind patterns for thousands of miles and camp it over Montana? Tell me, just where did they store all the FUEL it would have required to keep the envelope (Balloon) airborne for the trip?

Educate yourself with just a little basic information as to how hot air balloons operate and you will quickly realize hos STOOPID this entire story is.

That is the most pressing question right now. But silence is all we're getting. Perhaps to avoid panic?

Where it was two days ago is history and of little consequence right now. We know it's up there. Somewhere for some reason.

 Quoting: Sundecoder


they know what some wanted even then....

so yes, they told to the world the truth...

but low IQ....
 Quoting: 7..X.LePsihoLog


I looked up the lyrics and was flabbergasted:

You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one, they were gone
Back at base, bugs in the software
Flash the message, "Something's out there!"
Floating in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by

[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 1]
Ninety-nine red balloons
Floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert!
There's something here from somewhere else!
The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
When ninety-nine red balloons go by

[Verse 2]
99 Decision Street
Ninety-nine ministers meet
To worry, worry, super-scurry
Call the troops out in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it, boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As ninety-nine red balloons go by

[Verse 3]
Ninety-nine knights of the air
Ride super high-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a superhero
Everyone's a "Captain Kirk"
With orders to identify
To clarify and classify
Scramble in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
You might also like

[Outro]
Ninety-nine dreams I have had
In every one, a red balloon
It's all over and I'm standin' pretty
In this dust that was a city
If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon
I think of you, and let it go...
