The airborne object fromChina
described by the Americans as a "spy balloon" has been shot down. By
yesterday afternoon it had been blown by the powerful high altitude winds all
the way across the United States
and headed out into the Atlantic Ocean over Myrtle
Beach , South Carolina . As soon
as it was "feet wet", meaning over the sea, a notice was issued
closing the airspace in the area. This was obviously a safety preparation to
down the balloon and so the media headed to the location and managed to capture
the destruction on live TV. A F22 Raptor fighter plane fired an air-to-air missile
at the balloon with a fragmentation warhead, designed to perforate the entire
envelope and lead to a rapid crash, rather than just a few holes to give the
balloon a slower descent. Source: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-64524105.
The reason for this is obvious. The Americans don't want the balloon to come
down too far out to sea because they want to salvage the debris for analysis.
Much of the remains will surely sink when they hit the water and so the recovery
team will not want the water to be too deep. The Chinese authorities have
called the shootdown an "overreaction", despite the fact that they admitted
that the balloon had wrongfully entered US
airspace and they never requested that the balloon should be returned to them. Styx
thinks the contrary, that the US
administration has been far too restrained, see: https://odysee.com/@Styxhexenhammer666:2/damage-control!-chinese-spy-balloon:f.
I think that spells the end of this particular story. The government is
currently gathering what is left of the balloon's payload from the ocean bed.
They will then take it to a secret laboratory, maybe the one at Wright-Pat, and
study it as carefully as they did the Roswell
saucer. Any intelligence they learn from that study they will keep under their
hats in case it is useful in any upcoming conflict with China ...
that is of course until some spy leaks it.
