The U.S. military is tracking another “mysterious” balloon that flew over U.S. soil, according to a report from NBC News. It is currently unknown what the object is or who it belongs to, though officials do not believe that it came from China.
According to one U.S. official, the military has been tracking the balloon since last week and have determined that it does not currently pose a threat to aerial traffic or national security, nor does it appear to be communicating signals. The object did fly over portions of Hawaii, but did not go over any sensitive areas, officials told NBC News.
It remains unclear whether the object is a weather balloon or something else, one official said, adding that it could still be shot down if it nears the continental United States. The object does not appear to have any ability to maneuver and is currently drifting towards Mexico, according to the report.
