The 32-inch-wide amateur balloon K9YO-15 was in the area and went missing shortly thereafter.
The amateur radio community continues to be abuzz about three recent shootdowns of unidentified flying objects in North American airspace: one over Alaska, one over the Yukon in northwestern Canada and another above Lake Huron.on Feb. 11 by a U.S. Air Force jet might have been an amateur radio"pico balloon" — specifically, one called K9YO-15, which launched from Independence Grove Forest Preserve in Libertyville, Illinois, north of Chicago.
The K9YO-15 balloon made use of a silver mylar 32-inch sphere, which is available for the low price of $13.33. "I believe our communications with the FBI will help them identify our project as science in nature."In a communication with an NIBBB team member, Willis said that"we should be very proud of the work that we have done, and hope to continue our project connecting with amateur radio stations around the world."
According to the Pentagon, the object shot down over Canada that day was a"small metallic balloon with a tethered payload" — seemingly a match for a pico balloon.
