Original Note:
U.S intelligence began tracking the balloon soon after it left China. Pres. Biden decided against downing it following Pentagon assessments indicating there’d be a risk of debris hitting people on the ground. He may still decide to down it, likely once it drifts over water. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/02/us/politics/china-spy-balloon-pentagon.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/03/world/asia/china-spy-balloon.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare
