Geocache Description:

Micro cache: small tupperware container.

IMPORTANT NOTE: the final coordinates got changed on September 20th, so if you solved this one before and haven't found it yet, please make new calcumations for B and D. My apologies for the inconvenience.

You first need to solve the puzzle questions to find this micro. The coordinates at the top of the page are not the real cache coordinates. The cache is hidden at N 43 A.B and W072 C.D where

  1. = The answer to Life, The Universe, and Everything
  2. A cacher is trying to find a cache on top of a cliff, when she accidentally drops her GPS. It is a Garmin Etrex, with a mass of 160g. Gravity immediately grabs hold of it (9.8 m/s2) and the poor cacher sees her GPS drop down to the ground, far, far below. Impact is 9.36 seconds after she drops it. How high is the cliff? (in meters). Assume no air resistance.
  3. = The day in August when the very first attempt by the United States to fly to the Moon ended. This was before the NASA even existed, before any of the Apollo missions. The US was trying to get a rocket to orbit the moon, but this one exploded soon after liftoff.
  4. = How much (in kgs) a 135 kg human would weigh on Mars. Who needs dieting anyway? Just move to Mars! (If the answer is two digits, add a zero IN FRONT of it to get the 3 digit answer) (only use the digits before the decimal point)
Please rehide carefully. The cache is initially stocked with a few coins, and small trinkets. Enjoy!
