In early 2023, the United States Air Force shot down a mystery balloon off the coast of South Carolina. Salvaged from the coastal waters, the instrument array, solar panels and deflated balloon ride atop a Department of Defense 89’ flat car. Interestingly, this DODX flat car is painted blue, with an unusually high “LT WT” stenciled on the car of 157400 pounds; likely a prototypical painting mistake that should read “LD LMT.”
