    This all makes me wonder if some of the UFO sightings over the years explained away as weather balloons were actually spy balloons.

    I've always believed UFO sightings in the past had a terrestrial or otherwise explainable astronomical origin in the end. Shooting at the planet Venus? Get real.

    Thanks for the explanation. Radar tweaking does make sense.

    While our skies were being used to fetch data, I’d like to think we were doing the same to the Chinese and Russians on at least an equal scale. Perhaps that’s quite naive.

    That was what an article I think was posted here speculated. Navy pilots are seeing odd things, especially during large training exercises.

    Jeff Goldblum tried to warn us. What fools we were not to listen.

    Can we just catch one?

    Trillions in military and all we can do is destroy it?

    <Aliens blow up the White House and Capitol building>

    That night on Fox News: "Welcome to the Tucker Carlson show. Joe Biden's reign of error is finally over!"

    That night on MSNBC: "Welcome to the Rachel Maddow show. What a day! We finally have our first female president AND the Democrats have a super-majority in Congress!"
