Thank you for helping to bring attention to the great bird genocide of the last century.Doc_Brown wrote:Or maybe becausemookiemcgee wrote: I like this version of the truth! Everything checks out, except the part about 'ignoring' birds. Maybe it's because the gov't already has full GPS tracking of it's birds. That still doesn't explain why they wouldn't still want to keep track of all birds in the sky in case some of them were Chinese or Russian gov't birds.

Yes.You guys are such a joke. He doesn't shoot down the balloon, you complain that he's not defending the airspace. He shoots down the balloon, you complain that it wasn't real. He fulfills the terms of the NORAD agreement and sends American planes into action to defend Canadian airspace as the treaty requires, you complain that he's doing Trudeau's bidding.
Let's face it: no matter what happens you'll find a way to twist it into something to complain about.

The company I work for has a couple groups that develop and simulate radar systems. In fact, the group I lead develops algorithms for modeling and simulating various electromagnetic phenomenology, and we have an ongoing effort to predict uncertainty in radar signatures of certain types of objects. There is a lot of noise about multiple balloons entering US airspace during the Trump administration, with Trump officials denying that they heard anything about it. The noise ranges from political attacks, to conspiracy theories, to dereliction of duty. In reality, it's none of those things. The radar systems have discrimination algorithms built into them so that they identify potential threats and ignore things like birds and clouds. It's likely the radar noticed the prior balloons and recorded "something" but had no idea how to classify that something. The one earlier this week was finally properly identified. It's even conceivable that part of the reason it was allowed to traverse so much of the US airspace was to obtain a much larger training dataset for various radar and threat detection systems. And now that the detection systems have a proper identification for that unknown signature, a review of prior detection events highlighted multiple other balloon incursions that are only now correctly identified.

Seem to me more like suppositions than facts. Let's take them one by one.ConfederateSS wrote:Just stating facts....
Trudeau's parents were friends with Castro, so Trudeau would have grown up on positive terms with him. Doesn't mean love. Do you know some friends of your parents? You probably are on friendly terms with them, too. Does that mean you love them?ConfederateSS wrote:----------- Trudeau Loves Castro.....
I've seen absolutely zero evidence for this. It's a trope that's constantly repeated by right-wing talking heads, but as far as I can tell it's just BS.ConfederateSS wrote:----------- The Biden family is owned by China...
How do you know they were doing nothing?ConfederateSS wrote:----------- A Spy device Is tracked by NORAD...taking off from China...Goes into Alaska, nothing done, Into Canada, nothing done...Goes into Montana, a regular U.S. Citizen sees it, Now Biden has to try and cover for China...The Spy Balloon maneuvers over U.S. Nuclear sites...Biden does nothing
Biden said, “if China threatens our sovereignty, we will act to protect our country,". That's clearly a reference to the shooting down of the balloon for anyone who actually was paying attention. So much so that China's Foreign Ministry has complained about it.ConfederateSS wrote:---------- State of the Union Speech, Biden says much about nothing, about China, no talk about the Spy Balloon...
Maybe they know, but can't confirm without revealing secret information.ConfederateSS wrote:---------- All of a sudden....An Object appears over Alaska, Biden shots it down...NORAD doesn't know where it came from...
Again, same two possibilities. Maybe they know perfectly well, but can't tell us without revealing secrets that need to stay hidden. Or maybe they really don't know but are being especially paranoid due to the political heat the first balloon generated.ConfederateSS wrote:---------- Next day Another Object appears over Canada....Biden and Trudeau have it shot down...Once again NORAD has no idea where it came from...
Funny thing about tracking things in the sky... it's not 100%. Clouds and other atmospheric events make a difference.ConfederateSS wrote:---------- NORAD once again gets Object in Montana skies.... Doesn't know where it comes from...Still looking...
Again, there were many good reasons not to go off the deep end about it. See the list above.ConfederateSS wrote:Because, the 1st Chinese Spy Balloon should of been shot down over As soon as it reached Alaskan waters...2 weeks ago.
Why? NORAD tracks 2000 UFOs a year. That's six every day. Do you want a press conference for each and every one? After the third one, do you think anyone would care?ConfederateSS wrote:The American and Canadian public should of been informed...
Really no idea what you're trying to say here. Do you mean you wish they hadn't told us about Covid? Pretty big secret to try keeping, lol.ConfederateSS wrote:We sure as Hell had COVID , Informed on us....So those Commie Lovin Pinkos could control every aspect of our lives(or try to.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weather_balloonWeather balloons are launched around the world for observations used to diagnose current conditions as well as by human forecasters and computer models for weather forecasting. Between 900 and 1,300 locations around the globe do routine releases, two or four times daily, usually at 0000 UTC and 1200 UTC. Some facilities will also do occasional supplementary special releases when meteorologists determine there is a need for additional data between the 12-hour routine launches in which time much can change in the atmosphere. Military and civilian government meteorological agencies such as the National Weather Service in the US typically launch balloons, and by international agreements almost all the data are shared with all.

Seventy-seven flying aces in World War I were each credited with destroying five or more balloons, and thus were balloon aces.
Neither had I. That is so cool!

Fed, sometimes i really question your logic and reasoning.
You wouldn't want to shoot down an object without knowing it's contents. Safest route was shooting that first balloon over the coast then say, a populated city. Not sure why i would have to explain that. Lol.

It only took Secretary of Transportation Twinkle B. Twunk five days to comment on it. And he wasn't even on his Parisian paternity leave this time.mookiemcgee wrote:Hey so balloons are cool...
