What is this car sized object which America has shot down?

[weltweit]

The news is being very unhelpful.

An object the size of a car, flying at high altitude so a danger to aircraft.

The yanks shot it down but don't seem to know what it was.

A proper mystery

If they've told us this much I expect they will follow it up with more information when they get it.

I for one welcome our new cylindrical silverish grey small car sized overlords.

Don't you have any desire to speculate ?

Sure. Chinese tech.

Unidentified flying object.

Apparently the fighter pilots took photos before shooting it down.

Word is its this..

Anal probe this, asshole!

(Commas are important in this post - see how many you can spot)

Why is he calling it a balloon?

Why is he calling it a balloon?

At that point he was commenting on the Chinese Spy Balloon that they recently shot down also.

Well, at the moment it was a UFO

Now it is a downed UFO

and the yanks are on their way to recover the debris so they may tell us yet what it was, or they may not - tell us what it was, it all depends on what it actually was if you see what I mean

No matter what it actually was, it will be a "weather balloon." Even the Chinese used that excuse.

It's a North Korean fusion powered Trabant. You heard it here first

That's my apparently boring non-speculation. If they've told us this much and they don't recognise it (yet), why?

 

[Epona]

I've seen American cars, if they are saying it is a "small" car, it's probably bigger than what we would refer to as a small car.

Dunno if that helps.

NK doesn't have that level of technology.









Trabants are years off

Shaped like a king-sized bed.

Is it Musk's car come back to earth?

 

[RD2003]

I hope they haven't just released the next, human race-ending virus into the atmosphere...

Good job the sea is frozen or it would be a USO.

How many small cars are equivalent to a football pitch, and what is the UK>US conversion rate?

 

[A380]

How many small cars are equivalent to a football pitch or, say, half of Wales?

I don’t know, but I do know how to get two whales in a mini…
