The China Thread (Threat)
- Thread starter Marauder06
- Start date
I've wondered for a while now why the USG is being coy about the nature of the "objects" that were shot down, and I also thought it was odd that we were not able to recover the debris from several of the claimed shoot-downs. Some people are speculating:
1) we shot down the wrong thing--instead of a Chinese spy "object" or an alien UFO, it was something non-nefarious. Like a kid's science project.
2) we either missed what we shot at, or we didn't take those reported shots at all.
...of course it could be that the objects were threats and they're now just itty-bitty pieces at the bottom of the Great Lakes or something.
I don't know enough about the situation to take an educated guess. It's all just very interesting.

Rumours that the one shot down over the Yukon was an amateur radio balloon.
Mystery object shot down over Yukon may have been harmless 'pico balloon'.

We've been shooting shit without a proper PID since August 2021.
I have an issue with balloons flying between 10,000 and 40,000 feet. Small, but could they FOD an engine? Need a position light of some sort.

Hold your horses, Nostradamus. …just because you see a world wide conspiracy between every roll of tinfoil does not mean mean you’ve actually proven anything.
Repeating everything Art Bell rambled on about for decades and then claiming “SEE!” when something unexplained happens is the M.O. of nearly every conspiracy theorist; your aligning yourself with some of the guys on this board who are asking some very relevant questions does not automatically make you a SME on anything.

I have a issue with with them flying over a couple thousand feet. Same thing with drones. Pilots simply aren't looking for this crap and even if they are most of it's too small to see until it's too late anyway. I remember seeing a notation on a sectional years back about a balloon on a 10,000ft cable down near Yuma, AZ. Could you imagine running into something like that without notice?

Ain't that two faced face of you.
Also, I have no idea who you're talking about and my post history talks for itself, Mr. Woke. Don't you have a story time drag show at a library to attend?
My mom listened to Art Bell every night. And the lightbulb in her closet was recording everything she said.
I had to look up who Art Bell was.
Art Bell, Radio Host Who Tuned In to the Dark Side, Dies at 72 (Published 2018)
10 million listeners a week? Good lord, maybe I ought to hang up this Havok Journal thing and get into the paranormal.

My grandpa, one of the most intelligent and practical men I knew, listened in his garage workshop every evening.
He was banished to the garage, as my Gramma would not permit the show being broadcast in her home.
Tell Chris he needs to step his game up.

Thanks for posting this, now I don't have too.
Looks like the U-2's didn't have problems orbiting the balloon.
Wonder if U-2 found what it was looking for? (sorry, couldn't resist).
