We had a J-Lens blimp break it's tether and drifted over 160 miles into Pennsylvania. NORAD scrambled 2 F-16's to make sure it didn't get away. A lot of "stuff" (equipment) in it we don't want to get compromised...

Yeah. It broke loose down here outside of DC. People spent hours following it. Guess they should not have advertised the teather is in breakable. Opps.
