Airspace.....

Did it float over other states? They don't mention that, they don't mention where it's been. This is total bullshit. I hope we go to war over a fucking ballon. USA USA

How did it get to Canada? Did they launch it out of Edmonton? So China brought a ballon from China and blew it up in Canada then flew it down to Montana?

I just looked up what's in Montana.

Turns out that's where Malmstrom Air Force Base is, where Intercontinental Ballistic Missile silos are based. So... yeah.

You looked it up? You could have just made it to the fourth sentence in the article.

That and Montana has a few launch sites with Minuteman III missiles, which is a nuclear missile 20 times more powerful than the one dropped on Hiroshima. We have 400 of those all over the midwest.
