The Chinese spy balloon that recently crossed into US airspace was able to capture imagery and collect some signals intelligence from US military sites, according to CNN. The balloon transmitted information back to Beijing in real-time, raising concerns about the data it may have gathered that the US is still unaware of.

Despite this, the intelligence community is not overly worried as the information gathered is not significantly more advanced than what Chinese satellites routinely capture. US officials were able to track the balloon’s path and protect sensitive sites along the way.

The FBI is currently examining the balloon and learning more about its operation and design. The US government knew the balloon’s path in advance and was able to censor some signals it picked up.

While China claims the balloon was merely a weather balloon off course, US officials believe it was intentionally maneuvered to gather intelligence over sensitive areas. The incident heightened tensions between the US and China, leading to the postponement of diplomatic visits.
