Aerostar's helium balloon is north of Crownpoint over the Navajo Nation at midnight. Aerostar has multiple military defense contracts and says it provides "surveillance, intelligence and reconnaissance" to the U.S. military.
This balloon was over Whiteriver Apache earlier today, and began the flight over the oil rich lands of southwest Texas. The balloons of Aerostar, based in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, were over Indian country in South Dakota and North Dakota last week.
The balloon over the Navajo Nation tonight passed east of Church Rock, New Mexico, the site of the uranium mill spill on July 16, 1979, the worst in U.S. history. United Nuclear Corporation's tailings disposal pond at its uranium mill breached its dam. The radioactive spill continued to flow down the Rio Puerco wash, along the southern rim of the Navajo Nation, and on toward Flagstaff, Arizona.
