Geocache Description:

Geocaching in Space - A Geocaching HQ Event!


Join Geocaching and Pacific Science Center for a special evening of out-of-this-world fun (literally). A Geocaching Travel Bug® is hitching a ride to the International Space Station on November 6th. American astronaut Rick Mastracchio will carry the Travel Bug on his six month mission. He plans to use the Travel Bug as a tool to teach students on Earth, in his home state of Connecticut, about geography and science. He’ll also earn the Solar System’s most elusive smiley and find the International Space Station geocache.

Watch the Travel Bug and Rick launch into space live in the Pacific Science Center Laser Dome. Doors open at 6pm. The launch is scheduled for 8:08pm. An Astronomy Expert will be on hand to offer play-by-play of the launch. Before the launch, enjoy free activities for all ages, including a space themed laser light show. This is an all ages event with fun and excitement in store for everyone. Limited edition Geocaching in Space patches will be available for purchase at the event. All proceeds from the purchase of the Geocaching in Space patch will go to fulfill an education mission, by benefiting Donorschoose.org.

Space at the event is limited. Please RSVP by logging your Will Attend below with the total number of guest, and register for this FREE ticketed event. Please RSVP through THIS SITE.
