Looks like someone tied a kite string to one end of their air mattress, filled it with helium, and then let it fly, brother!

It looks like a router bit.

But if I had to guess, I would say it is a balloon or skin over a frame shaped like a large router bit and filled with helium (which is why it is moving with the clouds). To keep it from tumbling, the developer put a weight at the bottom (ballast).

The reason Wright-Patterson was chosen for this event is obvious given its history.

Roswell was not aliens - it was the Nazis, according to a German documentary.

Clearly it’s a weather balloon.
