Looks like the sensor payload let loose from it too. That's what we really want.

All the million dollar planes buzzing around it… Jesus Christ.
You know what MAYBE could have salvaged this whole situation? Get a few of the old WW2 planes to have at it. Or some crop duster dudes with a .50 strapped to the wings. Have a C130 blasting “GET SOME” doing fly pasts along the beach too |

Payload seperated from balloon right away. News is following the fabric down, but the techno bits flashing sunlight were going down faster.
