1862 called.

They'd like their balloons back!

* Military testing high-tech unmanned balloons

Quote

SALT LAKE CITY – The U.S. military has begun testing massive high-tech dirigibles — designed to provide battlefield commanders with a bird's-eye view of cruise missiles or other threats — in the skies over the Utah desert.

An unmanned 242-foot-long balloon was launched Wednesday morning about 80 miles west of Salt Lake City. It stayed aloft for about three hours before it was pulled back down as planned, according to Paula Nicholson, a spokeswoman for Dugway Proving Ground.

I had no idea there were cruise missiles or other threats in the skies over the Utah desert.
