The United States tracked and shot down a Chinese spy balloon last week and have since shot down three more high altitude objects. However, the object downed over Alaska on Friday is raising more questions as to the origin and purpose of the object. More concerning is the report from some of the pilots that the object interfered with their instrumentation and had no identifiable propulsion system. It appeared to be unmanned and did not appear to be self-maneuvering. What could be the source of the mystery object? No other foreign powers have stepped forward to claim responsibility, and if they do the question of the advanced flight technology comes to mind. Do foreign militaries have flight technology we don’t know about? Or even more concerning, could it be extraterrestrial in nature? For now, there are more questions than answers. Check this out.
The unidentified flying object shot down 10 miles off the coast of Alaska had “no identifiable propulsion” and interfered with the sensors of the U.S. military fighter jets that engaged the aircraft on Friday, according to a new report.
An unidentified object the size of a small car with a cylindrical shape, and flying at 40,000 feet off the coast of Alaska.
A senior military official said the object was initially detected by radar, and thenF-35 stealth fighterjets were scrambled to investigate the UFO.
National Security Council coordinator for strategic communications John Kirby said fly-bys of the object happened on Thursday night and Friday morning, but both encounters provided “limited” information about the unidentified object.
Kirby noted that the object “did not appear to be self-maneuvering.”
After determining that the UFO was unmanned, the decision was made to shoot it down.

If the craft were extraterrestrial in nature, would the technology be far more advanced than anything we have seen? After all, if a life form from outside our planet were able to solve the issues of interstellar travel, they probably would be able to avoid being shot down even by our most advanced weaponry. Even more terrifying is the intent and advanced nature of any possible weaponry they would possess.
Citing a source briefed on the intelligence, CNN reported, “Some pilots said the object ‘interfered with their sensors’ on the planes, but not all pilots reported experiencing that.”
“Some pilots also claimed to have seen no identifiable propulsion on the object, and could not explain how it was staying in the air, despite the object cruising at an altitude of 40,000 feet,” CNN reported. “The conflicting eyewitness accounts are partly why the Pentagon has been unable to fully explain what the object is, the source briefed on the matter said.”
Kirby added, “We’re calling this an object because that’s the best description we have right now. We don’t know who owns it – whether it’s state-owned or corporate-owned or privately-owned, we just don’t know.”
Either way the situation is concerning. If the objects are indeed terrestrial, then a foreign power has possible developed advanced technology that we are unaware of. It the objects are extraterrestrial; we have to assume we are being watched by an advanced life form. Not sure which is more unsettling, buck keep an eye to the skies just in case.
