China's top airship scientist first sent a high-altitude balloon over North America FOUR years ago"

China's top airship scientist first sent a high-altitude balloon over North America FOUR years ago Chinese aeronautics engineers boasted about sending high-altitude devices over US airspace almost four years before American fighter jets shot down a suspected spy balloon on February 4.

Chinese scientist Wu Zhe in 2019 told state media that he and his team had successfully sent an airship called 'Cloud Chaser' on a round-the-globe flight which saw it pass over the mainland US at an altitude of 65,000ft.

At the time the scientist claimed such high-altitude devices could be used to provide early warnings of natural disasters, monitor pollution or carry out airborne surveillance, according to the New York Times.

A still from a video in 2019 showed a map of the world with a red line tracing its way across the globe and crossing over North America, which Wu claimed showed the trajectory of his Cloud Chaser.

The discovery of Wu's boasting comes nine days after a Chinese high-altitude balloon was shot down off the coast of South Carolina, while US fighter jets downed three UFOs in as many days this past weekend.

'This is the first time that an aerodynamically controlled stratospheric airship has flown around the world at an altitude of 20,000 meters (65,000ft),' Wu said at the time.
