• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Spy Balloon Detail

Looking closer at that spy balloon, it looks like maybe a Light Detection and Ranging device (Lidar) was used and probably came in handy when over the missile silos
in Montana. A couple dish antennas can be seen on that rig. Wonder how much of that was recovered after it was shot down. The LIDAR looks to be located in the center
and just above that dish in the center.
