the flying objects were different shapes and sizes. the latest one was shot down yesterday afternoon near lake huron in michigan. we're told it was shaped like an octagon with strings hanging off of it. it was only 20,000 feet up in the sky. that is lower than the cruising altitude of a commercial airliner. the other object shot down over alaska and canada on friday and saturday were flying twice as high, around 40,000 feet. the suspected chinese spy balloon that floated across the united states about a week ago was also flying much higher, about 60,000 feet. the pentagon says it hopes to get some answers by examining the wreckage of the objects. we want to turn now to cnn's chief correspondent and anchor of "newsroom," jim sciutto in washington, d.c. with more this morning. talk to us about these unidentified objects. where were they and what do we know about them, if anything? >> well, don, the u.s. military has been busy in the last 72 hours. as you noted, three objects,

this one up here, off the north coast of alaska on friday. then over canada on saturday and sunday, here, lake huron. what's the common theme ehere? they're all coming this direction. that's the direction of the jet stream, the prevailing winds, et cetera. that brings china into play, not only china, but russia is up there as well. and we don't have an answer yet as to what country owns them or even the pentagon leaves open the possibility that it's not a nation state. it could be privately owned and operated. the two big questions are this. why is the u.s. now detecting more of these and are there more of these? t in answer to the first question, we know that, and that is that the pentagon, u.s. military, norad, they're looking more closely. they've in effect tightened their radars, their sensors to look for smaller options, particularly in that space you mentioned, 15,000 to 20,000 feet and they are seeing more. the big question is, are there more?

is this a part of the globe that china and other countries have been trying to exploit more in recent years? and that seems to be the suspicion here. you had the nato secretary general say this morning, that's exactly the suspicion of the u.s. and its allies, that this is a space that not just china, but perhaps other countries are using to look down at earth and gain intelligence. >> jim, what about how they actually took it down. because i know we heard from the pentagon yesterday, they considered a range of options, maybe shooting down some of these objects. but in the end, it was actually with missiles. how did they make that decision? >> in part because missiles have just been more successful. it's no accident that they've used the same kind of missile going back to the balloon off the coast of south carolina and these. it's hard to shoot at things with bullets at that speed. and keep in mind the jets firing, the f-22s are going much faster than the target here. so it seems, kaitlan, that the missile was just the highest percentage shot that they had for the pilots, given the target in mind here. >> the chinese are claiming that they have spotted their own unidentified object.

and late yesterday, there were reports that they were preparing to shoot it down. what can you -- what do you make of that claim, jim? >> it's a great point, don. this is something that i've been concerned about since the beginning, and that is escalation here. so the u.s. has now shot down four objects. we know one of them, the u.s. has identified as being from china. open question as to whether china is responsible for the others. but certainly a suspect here. there's always been the possibility that china shoots back. and china has been saying for a number of days, we reserve the right to do the same, and now, in the last 24 hours, you have china saying, hey, we spotted something here. we may shoot it down. we don't know if this is a u.s. object that they're talking about. what we do know is that u.s. drones, also crude surveillance aircraft are operating all the time, not over, but very near chinese air space. china doesn't like that. so, of course, the question, the danger going forward is, do those two forces come into conflict at some point. does china feel it has to take a shot. you start with uncrewed

surveillance aircraft, drones, et cetera, but this is a really dicey time between the u.s. and china. so when we think about escalation, these are the kinds of encounters we have to watch very closely. there are also a lot of crude u.s. surveillance missions about china. i've been on one of them before every single day. it's a dicey time between these two countries. >> let's hope it doesn't escalate. thank you very much, jim sciutto, joining us from washington this morning. >> and joining us for more analysis of what jim just laid out there is cnn's chief law enforcement and intelligence analysis, john miller. we keep talking about the pentagon and what the military is viewing this as, but actually, it's the fbi that's running point on this investigation. why is it the fbi? >> well, the fbi is running point on the technical collection of the pieces and the parts and taking them over to the operational technology division or otd with a lot of partners from other agencies, to look at them and say, what of this technology do we recognize? what of this technology can we say, what it's for, what it

does, how it acts? it's unlikely that there's going to be a prosecution in a case like this, because as we all understand, china spies on us, russia spies on us, north korea spice on us, iran spies on us, and guess what, we spy back on all of them. you know, since frances gary powers was shot down in 1960 over russia in a u.s. u2 plane, a spy jet run by the cia, this is game we play. what's happened here is this readjustment, which is, these things are being now detected. they're now being hunted, which is different from something that was happening three weeks ago. and it's been talked about in the open. >> let's talk about what you would do in, you know, in the room when you were trying to figure out what was going on with these. so give us a threat assessment. what is your -- are we in more danger now? >> so, i'm going to take the threat assessment and bring it down to the bottom. >> i agree with you on that one.

>> these are unarmed things. they have a purpose. and their purpose is to look around and to sniff. they're sniffing for signals. they're sniffing for radar patterns. they want to know when you fly over, where, you know, what are the radar patterns, who's, you know, looking for flying objects. if you're trying to figure out in world war iii, you know, where the facilities are, that's generally known. you know, what the protection is and the patterns there. all of that can be useful to an adversary. it's the same thing we do. none of these things shoot anything. they're not spreading anthrax through the air. and we're probably shooting down stuff that we're later going to find belonged to somebody, you know, who is not a foreign adversary. there's a lot of stuff lying around out there. >> that's what you think? >> like, who? what do you mean, who is not a foreign adversary? >> i think we're about a week away from a cartoon in "the new yorker" with an alien standing on the white house lawn next to his rex spacehouse saying, what

was that all about? there are commercial entities looking for oil fields and there's the national aeronautic and atmospheric administration, and not everything up there is working properly or squawking. but let's assume everything is a hostile foreign powers surveillance craft. it's still a low threat. what we're creating here is a very expensive proposition, which is, we weren't really paying attention before, because we know in the past few years, there have been 366 documented sightings of either balloons, drones, or radar signatures that they were never able to identify, you know, that nor ad has recorded. they've fine tuned that now to say, let's go find them, fix them, and if we can't identify them, take them out. that's why we're seeing four, you know, three in as many days. >> but we're also seeing them take actions that they were not even taking two weeks ago. they were hesitant to shoot that chinese spy balloon down. so you make a joke about aliens, but the pentagon was asked this

yesterday. because in the void of information, people are raising questions about what exactly -- this is what we heard from the norad commander general. >> i'll let the intel community and the counterintelligence community figure that out. i haven't ruled out anything at this point. we continue to assess every threat or potential threat unknown that approaches north america with an attempt to identify it. >> he hasn't ruled anything out yet. >> and that was in response to the question, you know, could any of this be from outer space, which i think, you know, he was giving himself a wide berth on, because, frankly, if they can't say what it is, they can't say what it's not yet. >> how much of this is optics? like, we have to do something? i would put it at the 85-90% realm, which is, you've got three things going on here. one, you have the anomaly, and you know, the chinese incursion. two, you have all of the shouting. that's on the political side.

three, you have the intelligence community, which hates to work out loud. i mean, everybody wants it all, they want it now, and they want it in detail. and they're like, we're trying to figure this out, and then we're trying to figure out what it means and what our strategy is. and you're not supposed to get that in realtime. >> it's fair for people to have questions, you know? they can't -- >> when we shoot something down, that's a conversation. >> especially this many times in this many days. >> and it's a balloon and people are going to be fascinated by balloons. oh, my gosh, what is it?! >> john miller, as we learn more, we'll bring you back to analyze all of that. thank you for writing it down. we have more questions, we'll be joined by canada's defense minister, anita annan. she'll join us. and we're tracking what happened in the super bowl, if you missed it last night. ♪ >> did you catch that moment? that was philadelphia eagles head coach nick sirianni with

this is the championship game on this level. wasn't nobody taking him out of the game on this one. he was excellent. to see him get to this point win or lose is an inspiring and empowering story. >> what did you think about that holding call that -- >> it was a hold! the question was whether you felt like calling it. >> but that happens on almost every play. >> that's what everybody says when somebody gets called on holding. that's the excuse you use. you got caught. >> even he said it was a hold he was saying, i was just hoping it wouldn't get called. >> they've been calling that hold all year long. it was a hold. it went from a field goal to a field goal that would have been a little bit long. he probably still makes the field goal under that circumstances, but that's what you do when you lose, you have to find something to point out about why they lost. they lost. >> some people thought the actual super bowl was rihanna's.

shot down four objects flying through north american air space in the past ten days. the latest was over northern michigan. that was on sunday. it was shot down near lake huron. you're looking at now, this is new video shot just into cnn. and it may be hard to see, but it shows fighter jets flying over michigan. and on sunday, u.s. jets took down an object that was being tracked over northern canada. the biden administration has been cautious, describing the unidentified object over canada, but at least two high-ranking officials have made reference to balloons as well as senate majority leader chuck schumer. listen to this. >> you can be sure that if any, any american interests or people are at risk, they'll take appropriate action. until they get that comprehensive analysis. however, we have to look at each balloon individually. >> were these balloons friday and saturday night? >> they believe they were, yes. but much smaller than the one --

the first one. >> that was chuck schumer there. but joining us now, canada's minister of national self-defense, anita annan. she meant with her counterpart, i should say, secretary of defense lloyd austin at the pentagon on friday. only a day before the object over canada was shot down. we're so glad that you could join us this morning. thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. >> since your meeting, have you spoken to our secretary of defense? >> yes, i have. we are in regular contact. i spoke with him not only on friday in washington, d.c., but also on saturday, as we discussed the cylindrical object that was over yukon territory, which norad shot down and we are now moving to obtain the debris and examine it. >> okay, so then, can you share with us anything from your conversations about what this is. you said it's cylindrical. it was similar to the chinese

spy balloon shot down off of south carolina, but smaller. correct me if any of my information is wrong. what did you learn and what did you discuss that you can share with us in your conversations since then. >> well, perhaps the most important thing is that we can continued to reiterated the importance of our shared cooperation and collaboration relating to the defense of our two countries. we both continue to stress the importance of norad and indeed, it was norad command that ensured that the object over the yukon territory was shot down. and so our work as partners and allies continues. but it is wonderful to have that strong working relationship with secretary austin. not only on this issue, but of course, on norad modernization, as well as ukraine. >> let me just ask you another question here. you said smaller than the chinese balloon, but what size

was this one? >> well, of course, we moved very closely and carefully to make sure that that item was out of the air for the protection of the canadian population. and at this point, we are not able to speculate on the precise parameters of the objects. from the visual that we received, it does appear that the object was cylindrical in anyway nature and smaller than the object that was shot down over the united states eastern coast. but it would be imprudent for me to speculate further at this time, until we gather the debris and until we do the analysis, the fbi is involved in that analysis, as is the rcmp here in canada. >> do you plan on sharing any of the video or the images from the object? >> we do plan to make sure that

we are being fully transparent with the canadian population. and more broadly, we're working with norad to make sure that we do a fulsome analysis. we have a cp-130 aurora making sure we are locating the debris. it's in a very remote part of canada in the yukon territory. the terrain is very rugged. so the insurance that we need to locate that debris is still ongoing. >> so, when this happens, everyone thinks "china." we don't know that for sure yet, unless you do. you can correct me if i'm wrong, if you know. so do you know where this object shot down over canada, shot down in canada, where it's from? any indications that it is china? >> we are still working to make sure that we have information before we state factually any of those types of points. my modus operandi is to make sure that we have the debris

analyzed before we are making further statements of fact and it would be imprudent for me to speculate therefore at this time. but i will say that we will leave no stone unturned in the analysis. we will continue to work with our american counterparts through norad and we will make sure that we have full information before we come forward and release it. >> before i let you go, when do you plan on releasing that information and when -- the information about who you think it is and also any images of what you shot down? >> we are still in the process of locating the debris and we will move to locate it and analyze it. we know that it was shot down over central yukon. we have teams on the ground and in the air, making sure that we are able to locate and analyze that debris. as i said, the rcmp, the fbi, norad, we are all on the same page about the need to do this as expeditiously as possible. >> canadian minister of national

defense, anita anand, thank you for your time. i appreciate it. >> thank you so much. take care. kaitlan? for more on this, on the american side of this, we have democratic congressman jason crow joining us this morning. he is a member of the house intelligence committee and previously served as a u.s. army ranger in afghanistan. good morning, congressman. my first question for you is, what have you heard from the administration about what's happened here? >> hi. well, good morning. first of all, kaitlan, this is not a new issue. this is an issue that the house intelligence committee and the department of defense and administrations have actually been tracking for many years. and there's kind of three different categories of what we call uaps, unidentified areal phenomenon. first are radar anomalies. these are things that pop up on the radar and are later determined not to be actual objects. the second are objects that are later identified as errant weather balloons or flocks of birds or something. then the third hour, what we're dealing with right now, those

are objects that have been identified visually on radar, as well, but are of an unknown origin. and we're not really sure what they are. what's happening now, we're looking for these with extra vigilance. we're looking for them in different ways. we're starting to see them in different ways. and president biden has now made the decision that we are going to not allow those over u.s. territory. we are going to defend the sovereignty of our air space, so to speak, and we're now shooting them down. that's the change. the intel committee declassified a report last year, and we held an open hearing, where we talked about this issue. >> what is new, though, is that we are shooting them down. the united states is moving quickly, as they did over the weekend. is it clear to you what the threshold is for shooting these objects down? >> well, the threshold appears to be, as described to me as within u.s. air space or canadian air space. we have a joint agreement with the canadians, as minister anand just described. that we'll protect the northern

aerospace defense zone, norad, and if something comes into our sovereign territory or u.s. sovereigntory, it's unidentifiable and poses a threat to commercial air travel, we'll shoot it down. that's the current criteria and that's happened in four different instances in the last week, including the most recent one over lake huron. and as minister anand and the department of defense has explained to me, we actually don't know what this object is. it's smaller, it's cylindrical in shape, and crews are recovering the wreckage from this object and will make this assessment. >> what did the pentagon tell you about where they thought these objects might be coming from. >> that's just unknown. if they know about it, they're certainly not telling me at this point. i haven't been back in washington for the last few days, so i haven't been able to receive a classified briefing on this issue. i don't believe that they know what the origin is yet.

they obviously have to recover the wreck age itself and look a how it's manufactured, what kind of materials are used to make that determination. but right now, nothing's being said. >> that is a question, though, when nothing is being said, it kind of fueling panic and speculation about what it is, from people who are seeing the u.s. military, fighter jets being scrambled to shoot these down. do you think the biden administration is being forthcoming enough about what they do or do not know about these objects? >> i do think that they are. first of all, these are not posing a threat to the united states or to americans. you know, these are benign objects, from what we can tell, and again, this is not a new phenomenon either. we've had uaps coming within the yates for years now. but this is a different dynamic now and we're deciding to take these objects down. really no indication of any threat to americans here. but, you know, if they were going to guess or put out information, that's not helpful,

either. it's better to actually get full information, take time, make sure that it's accurate. that it's reliable. that they know what they're talking about, rather than do conjecture or guesswork. that actually isn't helpful for anybody. >> it's good to hear you say that the current assessment is that they are benign objects. that's newsworthy. congressman, before you go, i know that you were going to brussels in a few days. we just heard from the secretary general of nato. he said that they are concerned that the war in ukraine is consuming an enormous amount of ammunition and depleting allies' stockpiles. is it depleting the u.s. stockpile of ammunition, baused on what you know? >> we certainly are using stuff from our own stockpile. we've been actually providing stuff to ukraine, using what's called presidential drawdown authority. that means we're taking stuff that already exists, and we're shipping it directly to ukraine. and the reason why we're doing that is because they need it now. the ukrainians need it now. we can't spend years or months producing this stuff. we have to get it immediately to the baldfield, which is actually the right answer. so really what this comes is our

ability to replenish and restockpile that, working with the manufacturers, which we're working to do. but we have 54 countries now, part of the ukrainian defense contact group, who are coming to the aid of ukraine. it's not just the united states. 54 countries that are providing aid, material, and equipment of various sorts. this is an international coalition that the united states is leading to help ukraine fight and win. >> all right. congressman jason crow, i know you've got a busy travel schedule this week. thank you for joining us to answer. those are very important questions. >> thank you. and straight ahead here on "cnn this morning," harry enten is here to break down the winners and losers of last night's super bowl ad blitz. super bowl ad blitz. we'll explain why this morning's number is nine

>> this google pixel ad was the best ad. it based on how effective they were. cnn's senior data reporter harry enten is here with this morning's numbers. so why was this one so good? all the things that they took out, i liked them? >> i liked them, too, but we're not professionals. we're not people who study ads for a living. we're just common day folk. so this morning's number is, it is nine. so that is essentially the number of the 50 adds that were graded by the kellogg marketing club. nine of them received an "a" grade. nine of 50. there was not massive grade inflation, perhaps like there is at my alma mater. let's sort of get into what some of those top-graded examples were. you mentioned the google pixel. how about that t-mobile bradley cooper ad, harlow. these were some of the top examples, at least according to those who study ads for a living. >> this is what the professionals thought were the

best ads, but what did regular people, were they googling? what did people think? >> interestingly enough, the u.s.a. today ad meter, nurl one was the farmer's dog forever ad. nfl flag football, run with it, which was one of the top ads searched on google. i think that was a very popular ad. the amazon saving sawyer, and the dunkin ben affleck ad. >> i loved that one, when he was working the drive-through at the dunkin. >> you know which one i liked, the farmer's dog. >> anything with dog, they could sell murder with dogs and i would love that. >> everybody in the room when they saw that ad went, ahhh. >> let's take a look, though, obviously, some of the good ads. how about some of those bad ads. let's go back to that kellogg's, what were some of the poorly graded ads, the ones that were given a "d" grade. the m&ms's ad with maya rudolph, the elf cosmetic, the downey. this one in particular i did not

like. >> i disagree with this one. jennifer coolidge can do no wrong and i thought the jennifer coolidge ad was kind of funny. >> the m&m's one. >> there's maya rudolph. before we noticed a difference between what some of the professionals were giving versus what some of the common folk were thinking. but take a look, some of the worst ads, the youtube balloon baby was really bad. but also look here, the m&ms ad was rated bad and the remi martin ad was rated bad. >> it was a little jolting, because they thought it was kind of a little bit of a different look. >> i was confused with the ad. that was what happened with me. >> thank you, harry. . >> appreciate it. this morning's number, nine. one of mvp's of last night's game, the super bowl super mom, donna kelce being there for both of her sons. touching moments, that's next. ♪
