Or maybe they said it was Venus, an unusual sight, to hide the fact that they were shooting at the moon, which would be significantly more embarassing…
They wouldn’t be using the naked eye to spot the balloons. While I certainly am on the skeptical side that this happened. It is closer to being plausible than it originally seems. There are just some suspect details.
Venus doesn’t look like a ball in the sky like that. It looks like a bright star.
The moon is what might look like something relatively balloon sized, but Venus? Nope.
Gtfo with this disinfo

Exactly. And Venus is occasionally visible during the day, so that lends some credence to the story.
