I guess this is a pretty good government campaign to solicit crowd participation (avert your gaze to the heavens!) in defending ourselves against foreign drone incursions and whatnot. We could use a less whacky rebranding of the word UFO, however.
Woohoo, more grainy footage! The threat is real.
(Mylar balloon) + (parallax) != (aliens)
The stupidity goes all the way to the top.
It is cloudy here today because of China. Later, I will boil some water because of China.
Seems like these perfectly spherical shiny objects consistently turn out to be artifacts of the camera and not actually objects flying. But not this time, I’m sure!
There’s a spherical object a-restin’ in the highway… and it’s not a piece of the caaahhhr.
Looks like a balloon. It even looks like you can see the knot where you normally would tie the string. And the reason it appears to move so quickly is because it is closer to the speeding drone than it is the earth below it.
I did not. ???
It’s all ball bearings these days.
