John Kirby called it an object today during the White House press briefing. He also said it was the size of a small car, unlike the balloon from China that was the size of 2-3 buses. Finally, Kirby said that the object could not direct its own propulsion or direction and was at the whim of the wind.

- BbzzbB 4y agoNo propulsion, wind-controlled, motor vehicle-equivalents... Yeah it's a balloon.
- postalrat 4y agoMaybe a weather balloon? No wonder they took it down. Those things are just looking for trouble!
- HarryHirsch 4y agoWeather balloons are disposable, they rise and expand in the process until they burst - the maximum size is somewhere between 5 and 10 meters, between a large car and a white van. The payload tends to have a parachute and a phone number (the ones from the Weather Service do). There was something about fear being the mind-killer. Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam to the Red Telephone please - paging the Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam!
