Pine Gap
#1
As we pass on the right hand side, we totally did not see [redacted]

Pine Gap has a lot of stories about it, stated as  a joint US/Australian facility, the reality is that its a US base and we aussies are the janitors.

Quote:Pine Gap is a satellite surveillance base and Australian Earth station approximately 18 km (11 mi) south-west of the town of Alice SpringsNorthern Territory. It is jointly operated by Australia and the United States, and since 1988 it has been officially called the Joint Defence Facility Pine Gap (JDFPG); previously, it was known as Joint Defence Space Research Facility.[sup][1][/sup]

Strategically placed in the middle of the continent, its not just safe from invasion, its safe from nosey neighbors.

So what does the base do?. Some have claimed its where teams of drone operators work, others say its connected to a mega underground cave system. Both could be true.
