ROCKET MAN

“Houston…we’ve got a problem.” It’s seems that Rocket Man was returning from a secret scientific mission when his automatic guidance system drifted out of alignment, and he lost communication with Ground Control. Rocket Man is an Adventurer, a Hero, and a Survivor. Despite these malfunctions, Rocket Man has managed to re-enter earth’s atmosphere and land safely. NASA has calculated that Rocket Man is now far from the originally planned recovery area. However, they have not yet pinpointed his exact location. It is known that Rocket Man has a logbook and choice specimens from his space journey aboard his rocket, “GALAXY.” Underground rumors have it that he may have touched down in the woods in a little town called “Mahwah, NJ.” NASA is calling all geocachers to help find Rocket Man so that emergency preparations for his pick-up can begin. Searchers can log their sightings of Rocket Man into the NASA Center at www.geocaching.com. Code Word: GCJCWA.
