Reply to comment by [deleted] in U.S. tracking suspected Chinese spy balloon but won't shoot it down by Nofux2giv

Satellite data on Google maps is always outdated. Montana has missile silos and rival countries sometimes want to monitor new developments up close. Idk what the balloon is exactly for, but to say any surveillance is useless is wrong.

No. I’m just responding to what you said. If Google maps is irrelevant to you, then why’d you bring it up?

But also, satellites are really really high up so they can only see so close to the ground without the resolution getting blurry. China’s tech is outdated compared to ours too. I’m just theorizing what close up surveillance could accomplish. Not assuming what is going on. We don’t know what the balloon has been doing. But it’s out there for some reason.
