High Altitude Objects

It seems High Altitude Objects — HAOs — are a common occurrence. Another, the second in a week, was shot down yesterday. CNN has talked in terms of a fleet of these things, although to be fair, it has not been confirmed that this most recent object was of Chinese origin and thus part of that fleet. The fleet terminology comes as a result of the mounting evidence that there have been multiple balloon sightings around the world over the last few years [1] [2] [3] [4].

The latest was shot down over the Northern coast of Alaska. I hope the caribou are ok.
