As I think more about it, I don't think it's a very high altitude
balloon...but rather relatively close and thus not too big. I agree that it's probably
a balloon of some kind. The reasoning, after it burst, the remnants fell
fairly quickly...just like gravity would allow if it was something relatively
close...like maybe no further than 1/4 to 1/2 mile. If it was several miles or
more away, I don't think we would notice the sudden drop all that much.
