The secret U.S. effort to track, hide and surveil the Chinese spy balloon

Nearly a year later, Biden administration officials say the threat was exaggerated, but U.S. military officials contend that too little has been done to detect high-altitude #spyballoons.

"China appears to have suspended its surveillance balloon program following a major diplomatic incident earlier this year, when one of the country’s high-altitude spy balloons transited the United States, multiple sources familiar with US intelligence assessments told CNN."

"The FBI concluded its analysis of the balloon’s remnants earlier this year, and the Pentagon announced in June that the US government assessed that the balloon did not collect intelligence while flying over the country."

Honestly imo the second quote, (read the article for more), that is a lot of behind covering going on. On both China and the US side. They also still refuse to release information about the 2 other shoot downs.

This whole incident reminds me of this vintage 1979 episode of "Project U.F.O." - "The Whitman Tower Incident" (S2E12)

If you don't want the watch the whole poorly recorded episode you can skip to 38:10 for the explanation

Apparently the Project #UFO TV series was based on actual Project BLUE BOOK casefiles.

After this past week, I’m starting to think the #film #Nope is a documentary.

My fellow #AirForceAcademy grad, retired F-16 pilot Chris Lehto, produced an excellent video explaining how the #USAF shot down the #ChineseSpyBalloon. My favorite aspect of the video was his breakdown of the radio communication from the lead F-22, call sign Frank. https://youtu.be/d0p_xtCA8iQ

Be careful up in Mt. Baldy this weekend, with all the missing hikers and Chinese weather balloons and all.

This bizarre story reminds me of the time when my cat refused to go into the garden for several days. I couldn't work out why. Then I spotted that a balloon from a kid's birthday party down the street had floated off into my garden and lodged in the branches of a tree. Evidently the cat was scared of it. As soon as I removed the balloon, the cat resumed his visits to the garden.
