Explanation as to
why these objects are now popping up (pardon the pun) right now. Explanation makes sense.
"Gen. Glen VanHerck, the commander of North American Aerospace Defense Command and US Northern Command, said that NORAD started searching for much smaller, slower-moving flying objects, while also making adjustments to filtration based on altitude. Typically, NORAD's radar detection is searching for fighter jets or bombers, which move at high speeds."
"As recovery teams work to collect debris from the downed objects, it's not immediately clear where they all came from. Pentagon Press Secretary Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder told reporters at a briefing last week that China operates a global network of surveillance balloons that extends across five continents and multiple regions, but
it is unclear if the objects that were downed in the wake of the Chinese spy balloon were also of Chinese origin."
Still think North Korea might be to blame here. Lots of saber rattling and a need for intel without the tech to do a lot of long range reconnaissance. Makes sense to follow the lead of your primary supporter.
