Pine Gap, Australia

Up next is Pine Gap, located in the Land Down Under, AKA Australia. It used to be a secret military cold war base that was used to keep tabs on all the different airstrikes going on in the world (it's just so hard to keep up with them nowadays). That isn't, however, what most people thought it was. It's just as they say: where a military base lands, a conspiracy theory follows.

Most residents of the surrounding areas actually thought the base was a facility for space exploration. But the truth is, is that it's a US-run, top-secret military base. Both options are pretty cool, to be honest.
