Dangerous Stuff
Great pipe dream but the jet stream is 23,000 to 52,000 feet, we are not talking low flying aircraft, we are talking commercial aircraft (plus) altitudes. Commercial aircraft could fly right into one of them if the governing facility (controlling airspace) misses the restricted altitude by as little as 5,000 feet (comparatively speaking). In the US restricted airspace is called "Bravo" airspace. Atlanta "bravo" airspace is one of the largest bravo airspace's (if not the largest) in the united states, and it is trespassed several times a day. As a private pilot this scares me, we are talking hundreds of miles of restricted airspace for one production station that could be entered into by one radio failure.
Unless someone comes up with a power transmitting cable lighter than a single fiber optic strand, the object will never make it to those altitudes, but if they could the one who trespasses it's airspace will eventually find out how far up that is.
