Peter,
There is a link to google map tracking link in Julian's message, #11 of this thread showing the balloon is currently near Adelaide. It was quite bright when the sun was up and even after ground level sunset yesterday, somewhere between the brightness of Jupiter and Venus. It remained bright after sunset and then faded when the Earth's shadow caught up with it. Then it went from bright white to yellow to orange to dull red then vanished.
