There is no evidence it had any military purpose, and given a balloon of that size has very little control and easily spotted it would be a terrible platform for spying.
- angry_octet 4y agoNo evidence except the logic for it's existence. It is 100% military. It doesn't need precision control, it's been at 80kft and can see a long way. It isn't easily spotted at all, and launches are much more visible, but that is irrelevant because we already have non covert observation in the form of satellites.
