Put it in a Faraday Cage and deflate it slowly to a soft landing.
What kind of altitude is it floating along at?
Have we no Patriot missiles we can fly up to Montana?
Anything with a laser?
Oh boy. Hakeeeeeem and Chuck You.
Peachy keen.
How about a bi-plane with some guy with a shotgun in the back seat?
We won’t shoot it down because it might have illegal aliens crossing our borders or it might have Joe’s most recent 10% off the top
.
Just borrow the “hook” from the Apollo Theater and grab the friggin thing and bring it down.
Oh, I can imagine. The CCP and the media are going to have to find another leaker.
Personally I'd opt for announcing that the country owning the balloon needs to announce it now or it goes down. You don't fly so much as an airliner over somebody's territory without permission.
Good thing it’s not spreading toxins, right? Right?
I was asked by ATC to look for a balloon while over Canada on my flight from anchorage. No details given when I asked. Flying a 747 at 35,000’.
Ridiculous that this balloon or whatever it is hasn’t been taken down yet.
Malmstrom Air Force Base is a United States Air Force base and census-designated place in Cascade County, Montana, United States, adjacent to the city of Great Falls. It was named in honor of World War II POW Colonel Einar Axel Malmstrom. It is the home of the 341st Missile Wing of the Air Force Global Strike Command.That is the headquarters of our ICBMs.
This is just stupid by this administration wonder just how long the feds have been tracking this balloon.
Someone suggested on another thread that this could be used to spread something like a virus. And yet our current government does nothing. That makes the virus theory even more plausible in my mind. Knowing it is not patriots who are in control.
So I guess china’s advanced technology balloon has been discovered by the world. What a joke! The idea that China has a balloon versus satellites means that they are 70 years behind the times.
Future High Altitude EMP platform.
Shoot them all down. Or maybe we start flying some balloons over China.
China is prepping.
I wonder if the balloon is cheaper than buying sensitive information directly from Xo Xidung or Humper?
