Just a year ago, a ** weather forecast balloon appeared in the sky over the United States and caused a heated discussion, and now, the US military once again said that a high-altitude balloon was found over the United States.
The high-altitude balloon is drifting over the western United States, CBS News reported Friday afternoon. Earlier, it was spotted flying over Colorado, causing concern for the US military. The military sent personnel to inspect the balloon and finally concluded: the balloon did not pose a threat!
A spokesman for the North American Air Defense Command (NORAD) said the military detected the "small balloon," which flew at an altitude of about 13,100 to 13,700 meters under the Hot Spot Engine program. Norad's fighter jets intercepted the balloon over Utah and determined that it was uncontrollable and did not pose a threat to ***. Norad will continue to track and monitor the balloon. At the same time, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) also confirmed that the balloon did not pose a danger to flight safety. Norad is in close coordination with the FAA to ensure flight safety. Thinking of this time last year, I wonder if they will make a fuss about this matter again?
Let's have a happy Lantern Festival!
