object shot down over alaska may be coming now via the northern illinois bottle cap balloon brigade. they say that they lost what aviation week is describing as a party style balloon over alaska. the same day an f-22 shot something down in the same spot. norad is saying the fbi has spoken with the hobby club and expects the national security council to have more on potentially identifying the objects. but, ron meadows, the founder of the scientific balloon solutions, which makes that kind of balloon, says i tried contacting our military and the fbi and just got the run around to try to enlighten them on what a lot of these objects probably are. and they re going to look not too intelligent to be shooting them down. the style of balloon that they think may be theirs, that was shot down, 12 to $180 each. these style of weapon used to shoot them down about $400,000 each. back to you.
