China's Weather Balloon Causes ''Top Gun 3'' To Trend: Screen Rant says China's weather balloon was shot down off the coast of South Carolina on Saturday. The balloon was first spotted in Alaska. It traveled across the United States over the course of several days. Myrtle Beach residents spotted F-22 fighter jets heading to shoot the balloon down. A single missile hit the balloon.
China's government reacted to the shoot-down by saying; "The Chinese side has clearly asked the US side to properly handle the matter in a calm, professional and restrained manner.
