Australia ufo on google Earth?


This is a neat article I found today... it shows what "appears" to be a triangle ufo over the sands in Western Australia. What's neat about it is that if you have google earth, you can see it too. (Note: google earth is free and awesome!). In one of the screenshots of the article you can see the longitude and latitude coordinates, so just type those into google earth and it will zoom right to that spot. 30 30'36.50S 115 33'52.00E <- you can copy and paste that and it should work. (another note: the same images are not used on the web based google maps.)
My personal opinion... this is not a ufo at all, but some sort of man made mark in the soil. The article claims they are lights at the corners, but I'd say they are light colored sand. IF it were an object that was airborne, then there would have been a shadow. Still, if I lived in Australia, I'd be in my truck right now trying to find that section of land to see for myself.

It's a radio antenna, it's already been discussed at length, people have driven up to it. The 3 points are where guy wires are anchored to the ground.

Thanks Anon! I figured that's the type of natural thing that would answer this "mystery".

Wow! what a HUGE Antenna! Would love to see that one, look how it dwarfs the roads nearby, MUST be the largest in the world, amazing how no one heard about it. Does Australia have it's own Area 51 where activity goes on nobody knows about? Hmmm for this story to be talked about at lengths, it must considering it has only recently hit the news. For any conclusion to be drawn must be out there longer than it has been. Looks nothing like the Belgian Triangles either, looks totally ordinary out there in the desert so you anon MUST be right it has got to be an antenna... or maybe a balloon, possibly swamp gas, or a glitch on google... to the untrained eye it WOULD look like a UFO... hats off to you friend you like those other skeptics out there are pure genius.
Oh and I'm not being sarcastic in the slightest either ;)

Its no radio antenna. If you look close you can see that the actual radio antenna is to the left of it. However radio antenna is better then weather balloon.

A co-worker of mine told me about this; he is a UFO fanatic. At first glance yes it looks like a UFO; however if you look closely you can clearly see a shadow were an antenna is. I'm not saying I'm not a believer trust me I believe there is another living race of beings out there somewhere. If they would have visited Earth, I'm sure we would have heard their laughter by now. Any intelligent race would know to steer clear of this planet.
