1. For the #ChineseSpyBalloon to fly to the #US, the accuracy of the wind field forecast and modeling data is an important prerequisite to carry out autonomous flight decision and simulation analysis, which applies multi-source meteorological data such as direct observation data
2. medium- and long-term forecast data, historical reanalysis data, and proximity forecast data. Oceanic and atmospheric forecast data for Asia, the Pacific, and the Americas must be available.
The real-time data used by the #ChineseSpyBalloon mainly include forecast data and
3. observation data, including high-resolution European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts(ECMWF HERS), National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Global Forecast (NOAA GFS), National Center for Atmospheric Research Hazardous Weather Forecast (NOAA/BCI),
4. balloon autonomy observation data, etc.
The elements, resolution, and update frequency of each forecast and observation are all different.

Now you understand more about the #ChineseSpyBalloon?
#ChineseSpyBalloon 1. As early as 2015, #CCP successfully flew its stratospheric airship "Yuanmeng (Dream)”.
It has continuous power, can monitor the ground 10 times better than satellites, act as a #wartime communication support & attack platform, and is difficult for missiles
2. and aircraft to reach & attack, according to this propaganda video.
Yuanmeng is the pronunciation of the Chinese word 圆梦, which means “a dream comes true”.
Hasn’t #XiJinping always talked about his “#ChinaDream”? The name of this stratospheric airship reflects
3. the #CCP’s “dream” to conquer the world.
You know what? While the West calls #ChineseSpyBalloon a “balloon”, the CCP has been using “#airship” (飞艇) to refer to the flying object that was shot down by the #US.

1. A very worrying issue shared by a #Chinese doctor: infected for the second time/repeated infection.
According to this doctor, their hospital beds are currently largely occupied by ppl with second infections. These patients' pain is 5-10 times worse than the first time.
2. Their immunity is extremely low, and many people rely on immunoglobulin infusions, which cost more than 800 yuan per dose. They need two infusions a day, spending 2,000 yuan for a one-day hospital stay. Don't listen to the experts on TV. After being infected, you can only have
3. immunity for a month. Second infection is very serious. We have run out of immunoglobulin. Many patients lie in bed without being able to buy any. They suffer a lot. I have given up my plan to travel to my hometown for the Chinese New Year. The situation is too bad. But the TV
