A NOAA air current model shows the China spy balloon is expected to traverse the United States heartland through the Midwest and Southern states on Friday before heading out to the Atlantic Ocean passing over the U.S. Navy base at Newport News, Virginia. Joe Biden refused to shoot down the balloon, however Secretary of State Antony Blinken cancelled a planned trip to Beijing in protest.
The NOAA HYSPLIT* model was used to reverse track the balloon from China. The balloon flew over the Aleutian Islands, then into Canada air space before crossing into U.S. airspace over Montana and a U.S. nuclear missile base on Wednesday.
Forecasting shows it continuing across the U.S. on Friday:

Check out the back track. It should have been taken down
the instant it crossed the Aleutians. Recover it and analyze it.

We used to do it regularly when spy satellites would drop their film cassettes...

We have a number of US military spy balloons over the US at around 80,000 MSL. There are some over Europe too. See monkeywerx for details.

Joe “ChiCom” Biden was bought a long time ago by the Chinese communists. What a pathetic sight.

"Depending on how high it is - some sources have said 50K feet, some have said 50 miles - if you shoot it down, it could cause damage on the ground. Not the ground! Gotta protect Muther Erf!
Odds are it just smacks into an empty field with nothing bad happening at all.
