    We shot it down right? So they probably looked at the hardware. Antenna, processor and other hardware design. Should be pretty easy to reverse engineer it’s capabilities and flight path. At that point you’d know if it was close enough to monitor whatever military base.

    Yeah it’s going to be largely conjectural.

      They didn’t just say that it didn’t collect military info though, they said it didn’t collect anything. There’s no way a Chinese spy balloon didn’t collect anything. They have no possible way of knowing what it did and didn’t collect, especially since they destroyed it.
