Weather balloon

Only way to steer it is with the wind, good luck!

Made using a close up picture, as accurate as I could get it to the real deal
Completely harmless, nothing to see here!
What do you mean? Spy balloon? Nah... Unless..?

Making a VR version where you can drag yourself around it, it's gonna be different from the real balloon but it should look good either way

R.I.P. My other balloon post lost the vehicle too so never going to be back again

    再次声明,这是一个无害的气象气球,因不可抗力,来到美国的,只不过是为了节省空间,长得像卫星,它是无害的。(Again, this is a harmless weather balloon, due to force majeure, came to the United States, just to save space, looks like a satellite, it is harmless.)

    definately not a spy device, just harmlessly carrying a satellite...definately for space.

    Also if anyone decides to mention it, yes I know that this isn't the actual chinese spy balloon from recently, that has been done already multiple times so I don't feel like being another one and I followed a different design
