    One of the topics we discussed last week was the story around Chinese spy balloons which were sighted over the US and Latin America last week.  One of those was shot down over the Carolina coast.  News articles began to emerge shortly after the downing of the balloon off the US coast line stating that other Chinese spy balloons crossed into US airspace during the Trump administration, but were not detected by our military.  On Thursday, February 9th, CNN reported that the Biden administration had determined that the balloon downed off the coast did, in fact contain signal intelligence collection capabilities.  On Saturday, two more “high altitude” objects were downed over Alaska and Canada by US forces.  The object in Canada was downed by a US fighter at the request of Canadian authorities.

    Something is clearly going on here.  There are multiple factors here that are concerning from the multiple geographies involved, to the sheer number of aircraft, and still the lack of a compelling story from the Chinese government.  Since, China admitted at one point that at least one of the balloons was Chinese, I suspect that the others are as well, but it will be interesting to watch this story as it develops.
