Balloon questions: (Case solved: weather balloon)

UPDATE: It's a fucken weather balloon!!!!

Thread: China said balloon is a civilian craft designed primarily for meteorological study that blew off course.


How do we know it's from China? OK - now we do.

China has spy satellites. Why would they use a balloon?

North Korea does not have spy satellites yet (officially) - could be from them!

Why would North Korea spy on the US? - wouldn't China provide them with their spy satellite intelligence?

And how hard is it for the US to shoot down a balloon?

It does not make any sense ..

Therefore the only conclusion is that THIS IS NOT A SPY BALOOON.

And probably it can't be shot down, because it contains a payload.

Or it's a psy-op.

It might be a joke/psy-op - but it could equally be dead serious -

Imagine the following scenario:

what do you do if the balloon contains a payload of aerosolised spike proteins/Anthrax/unknown biological agent/EMP NUKE?

You can't shoot it, as it would release the payload in the atmosphere.

You can't move it away to the middle of the ocean, as no planes can fly that high (60,000 feet)

what do you do?

Only chance is to pull out secret space program anti gravity tech.. or strap a man to another giant helium balloon and get him to attach a giant rope to the rogue balloon and bring it down to the ground.

In that case you have to hope it's not booby trapped.

And then what do you do if 1000 of such balloons appear all over North America?

Now thinking about this, this balloon trick is quite a brilliant idea!!!

Just my 2 cents.

Here is Styx's take on the balloon:



Final thoughts:

If the USA (N#1 military force in the world) is unable to deal with a slow moving high altitude balloon - what are we going to do when the Aliens attack us.
