It is far easier for me to believe this is an errant satellite, than to believe it is a "spy balloon" and it is from China.

For it to be a spy balloon you would have to work out, why was it flying low enough for people to see. 10-20,000 feet higher and no one would have noticed.

And if it was a spy balloon, how was it sending its message?
Was it recording to VHS tape? Cause we all know how technically behind China is?

The whole story the MSmockingbirdM put out doesn't make any sense.
