I don't know if that can be done (not being versed in that technology); still, it seems like a reasonable idea. A missile is something thrown; do you mean an arrow, a rock, or a bullet from a gun?=--Still, it might have certain types of chemicals or explosives inside it. But if it's over the ocean at the time, the impact on the population of the area could be minimized.----Also, I wouldn't much mind if somebody also assassinated Phewtin, while he was at it.
The balloon itself is held aloft by Helium - a noble gas which is non-flammable. It is now 66,000 feet high. It would have to be brought down by a surface to air missile fired into the balloon without a warhead. It would need to miss the payload carried below the balloon.
Yes, I just heard the same on the radio. Right after it flew over a number of our military bases. Biden closed the barn door after all the livestock got out.
...and that is precisely what he did...so what was all the "Inflated' distraction all about?...what did we miss? Funny, a week ago, I predicted News stories in search of a distraction!
About time. I just read that it had been shot down. I don't see how it could have been brought down without ruining it, in order to take it apart and study it. I don't really think that could have been done. It may have been somewhat dangerous to people to shoot it down, but had it been suffered to stay up there, it could have (and soon) been a lot more dangerous to many more in the population.
