#AtoZChallenge - B is for Balloon

On January 28, 2023, a Chinese surveillance “spy” balloon, 200 feet tall with a payload of several thousand pounds, was seen over Alaska.  It was allowed to drift across the US for days, but was finally shot down by US fighter jets off the coast of South Carolina.

  1. Yup,that spy balloon needed to be shot down much earlier. We then went crazy and shot down a few more balloons. Is that the sun's huge burps that causes mayhem on our planet?
