The Meteorological Department has also taken a stand on the issue of an obscure object seen by the PIA captain at an altitude of 35,000 feet.
According to Khalid Malik, a spokesman for the Meteorological Department, it is not yet clear whether it was a flying saucer or something else, but the department has two different balloons to measure the weather.
One type of balloon is capable of flying at an altitude of 6,000 to 7,000 feet, while the other type of radio balloon can fly at an altitude of 70,000 feet.
The spokesman said that the department has recently stopped the process of meteorological testing through Radio Sunday.
