Well considering Canada has nothing that China would even care about then why worry about a balloon? :D

Timber.
Diamond mines.
Mineral resources.
Water.
Agricultural land.
Wilderness.
Bears.
Infrastructure to get it all over to China.
As WW3 develops, no one is going to be dissing the "preppers." What have you done?

They just have to ask Justin for that info and he will give it gladly!

I meant more on the Military side of things.

Nothing showing on ADS-B, they learned a lesson in how to not be tracked by the public apparently.

A complete aside, but in terms how "uncertain" our atmosphere can be, and to give the casual observer an idea of how it is talked about it in very general terms, yesterday the tropopause folded over Mt Washington, New Hampshire. At a mere 5000 ft it was in the stratosphere for a brief period of time.

It looked like this... https://twitter.com/i/status/1621598650022363142 (In case anyone is wondering how to dress for a nuclear winter...)

My guess...It was launched out of a sub within 200nm of the coast. Probably got close intel on how well hardened the 150 icbm silos at Malmstrom are. Gotta know if the CEP on your reentry vehicles is going to work or not.
My only guess... this song is going to make a brief comeback. I'm not saying it should...

Apparently last two objects that have been shot down including this one in the afternoon today were not balloons.

Speculating that the mysterious object on Friday morning has anything to do with what is going on...

This is kinda crazy!

For anyone that plays with google earth, or any of the satellite imaging platforms.

Sorry, shouldn't leave things hanging like that. (ba dum tss) Looking at few things right now.

That, is the alleged launch site of these balloons, there's a huge gap in the data over China, but it looks like this.

I'm still trying to find a better image and I'm looking at the backtrack over the last few days. Sure would be nice if something NORAD would ping for a minute or two up in the Yukon, but nothing over the Yukon, or Alaska.

Only one confirmed ballon so far.

Pretty cool though. China is quite the place to Google Earth.

2 other "objects" shot down plus mysterious burn out over Kelowna on Friday morning too slow to be a meteor.
