I thought i would write a short post about what WE think of the shooting down of ( now ) 4 aerial objects over our skies, okay the first one was a balloon, a spy balloon but what about the other 3?
WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT THIS..........
HERE IS THE LATEST ON THEM.........
The take down is the fourth in just over a week and the third in as many days after objects were shot down in Alaska and Canada. The Pentagon believes the latest UFO is the blip that showed up on radar over Montana on Saturday.
The US has shot down another unidentified object that it says flew near sensitive military sites and could have been used for spying.
It was downed over Lake Huron in Michigan at 2.42pm local time on Sunday on President Biden's orders.
A US F-16 jet fired a missile at about 20,000ft amid concerns that its altitude and flightpath could endanger civilian planes.
It is the fourth incident in just over a week - and the third in as many days - after objects were shot down in Alaska and Canada on Friday and Saturday,
A senior US official, speaking anonymously, described the latest object as having "an octagonal structure with strings hanging off but no discernible payload".
Authorities restricted airspace over the lake, near the Canadian border, before both US and Canadian jets were sent to intercept it.
Jets were also scrambled on Saturday after radar detected an object over Montana, but it could not be located and it was thought it could be an error.
However, the signal was picked up again by North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) on Sunday, the Pentagon said.
"Based on its flight path and data we can reasonably connect this object to the radar signal picked up over Montana, which flew in proximity to sensitive DOD [Department of Defense] sites," said a statement.
We did not assess it to be a kinetic military threat to anything on the ground, but assess it was a safety flight hazard and a threat due to its potential surveillance capabilities."
Teams are trying to recover the object from the lake.
US Air Force general Glen VanHerck admitted he did not know what the last three objects shot down were or how they stay aloft.
However, he told reporters they were not the same as the Chinese "spy" balloon downed near South Carolina a week ago.
"We're calling them objects, not balloons, for a reason," he said - also refusing to rule out any explanation when asked if they could be extra-terrestrial.
A National Security Council spokesperson earlier on Sunday said the unidentified objects shot down over Alaska and Canada were "much smaller" than the Chinese balloon.
Object was cylindrical'
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said teams were searching for the object shot down over his country.
A US F-22 stealth jet brought it down on Saturday over the sparsely populated Yukon territory in the northwest.
"Recovery teams are on the ground, looking to find and analyse the object," Mr Trudeau told reporters.
"There's still much to know about it. That's why the analysis of this object is going to be very important."
Canada's defence minister Anita Anand described it as cylindrical but smaller than the Chinese balloon.

Agree with @Flossy ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐๐๐ , the aliens would run far away from us the way we're going @Happygirl
Bit worrying that they weren't able to identify them before shooting them down.
Balloons filled with toxic diseases - that is really worrying.
Aliens? Let's face it if aliens came within 10,000 light years of our planet they would do an immediate U turn.
Will be depending on you @Happygirl to keep me informed of developments - not watching TV at the moment. Thanks.
ALSO, then if it is from one of the countries that we think it maybe, then they could actually fill a balloon with some toxic disease you know or even something nuclear, I for one am watching the developments very closely indeed
REMEMBER when we went to the moon, welcoming Aliens to find us and telling them what great people we were, well all i can say is that if ANY ONE of these things were from outside of our solar system and we have destroyed them, then WHAT A WELCOME WE HAVE GIVEN TO THEM..............and Heaven help us
