Chinese Military Blimp Caught on Satellite Images

“A large blimp developed by the Chinese military has been spotted for the first time at a remote base in the desert of northwestern China,” CNN reports.

“Aerospace experts say the images, taken three months before a Chinese spy balloon was shot down off the coast of South Carolina, could signal a notable advancement in China’s airship program, demonstrating a more versatile and maneuverable craft than previously seen or known.”
