The Pentagon shot down an unknown object flying in U.S. airspace off the coast of Alaska on Friday on orders from President Joe Biden, the White House said.
'So I can confirm that the Department of Defense was tracking a high-altitude object over Alaska airspace in the last 24 hours,' National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said at Friday's briefing.
'The object was flying at 40,000 feet and posed a reasonable threat to the safety of civilian flight.' Kirby said that 'out of an abundance of caution and at the recommendation of the Pentagon, President Biden ordered the military to down the object and they did, and it came inside our territorial waters.'

Zhuang Guota was fired, because the 1st balloon was an accident.
Now this balloon appears.
The Chinese Communist Party has very little respect for Biden, his puppeteers, the Democrats, RINOs or DC in general and that is scary. It means there will be violence IMO.
Even my oblivious spouse now sees war clouds.
Biden obviously cannot do the job. that is okay some Democrats reason, because the staff will carry on. The problem is that the buck does not stop at the Chief of Staff's desk or the White house Communications directors staff. Those position are musical chairs they last less than the term of a presidency.
The problem is that the bunch does not stop as the desk of the puppet masters. They have a built in fall guy, In this case a guy named Lunchbox Joe.
If Obama makes the mistake of not having the firstest with the mostest, the public won't blame him. He'll deny he is in charge.
If it is not solely Obama ,but decision making by committee, it is kind of obvious that the committee is slow off the mark. They are also delusional. Slow and delusional Not a good thing heading into a war.
After pearl Harbor the first thing done was to list and rank all the admirals and generals to find the best and send the under achievers home or station them in a bywater. We still have Milley. Good old Milley will call his counterpart, if Milley does not like Trump's decision.
Milley, the disobedient, is still in office after Trump.
Man bidens got no style. Should have sent Maverick up in a Tomcat and live streamed it on tick tok
So they knew what the last UFO was and let it traipse across the country free and clear. Now they claim to not know what this was and shoot it down right away.
/I feel safer already.
I predict it was a fixed-wing drone of some kind, but who knows?
We know it can't be a hypersonic glide-body!
Good to have a steady hand at the tiller.

If you knew a bit more you would know how silly most of these comments are.
Our outfit responsible ford unidentified objects noted this item. Knew it was not getting secret stuff. shot it down and will recover and study it.
The balloon, by contrast, once spotted might well have been fed false info by the US, but sources reveal that it was not getting highly secretive stuff and so took it out over water where it could be salvaged and studied.
silly remarks do not add to a decent and mature conversation.
Was there something we did that was
obvious? Yes. A few years ago Chinese balloons were flying over our air space and we failed to detect them.
