Found an interesting looking place on Google Maps:
Taken about 3km south of Maralinga Airport in 2011. Apparently in the 60s, the brits came and bombed the area around Maralinga for not much reason at all. So cheers for that boys

There's even a movie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_Zero_(1987_film) I knew the writer.
Is that a Tardis?
