Thanks for posting this thread, i never knew Pine Gap had anything to do with UFO's.
I do know that a bunch of Australian activists managed to penetrate the base at night, years back. They were captured soon after and prosecuted
though.
your welcome.
Wycliffe Well is known as the UFO hotspot in Australia, its close to Pine Gap, and interestingly it's close to Devils Marbles. www.youtube.com...
for some reason my google Earth cant locate it i will try and find the coordinates.
here we go google Earth 20°47'44.44"S 134°14'11.20"E and take a look a little further up and you will see the Devils Marbles.

Good catch about the conflicting source of balloons. This incident is important if base personnel were actually involved, whether they were acting
officially or just pranking in their spare time.
If there is any documentation of the police investigation, and confirmation that the US base personnel were involved it would be very significant. I
suspect however, it was just a rumor.
