"It's not clear to me just HOW the balloon was "shot down". - g0177325

Based on my limited observations, the "balloon" (identified by China as an airship. Why you may ask, because it's altitude, speed and direction is controlled remotely, unlike a balloon). Anyways, there were two plumes of smoke when the airship was neutralized. The black/darker plume is consistent with what one would expect when a missile strikes a lithium battery bank (that was hanging below the balloon portion of the airship).
