1. Mainzer Space Worscht Event
7. November 2013 ab 19.00 Uhr
Im letzten Groundspeak Newsletter war folgendes zu finden:
You don’t read the words, “We’re going to space!” very often. So, how about we soak up the joy of reading those words once more? Let’s add a little pizzazz and shout it by using all capital letters: “WE’RE GOING TO SPACE!” Yeah! A Geocaching Travel Bug® is hitching a ride with astronaut Rick Mastracchio straight to the International Space Station. The mission is currently scheduled to launch from Kazakhstan at 4:08 GMT on November 7, which is 5:08 a.m. in Berlin and November 6 at 8:08 p.m. in Los Angeles. (Convert to your time here.)
Rick will live aboard the ISS for 6 months. 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.
We’ll be following Rick the whole way, beginning at liftoff. Ready for some more pizzazz? Geocaching HQ will issue a Geocaching in Space souvenir to those who attend Event Caches during the launch. You can watch the launch live online or check out the recording later to celebrate the geocaching community’s spirit of exploration.
Find out answers to frequently asked questions, learn everything you need to know about hosting a Geocaching in Space event and get continuously updated launch information at the Geocaching in Space Event Center.
Somit ist ganz klar, dass wir uns am 07. November 2013 ab 19.00 Uhr treffen,
um die Aufzeichnung des Starts, die ISS am Himmel oder die Sternchen nach dem
exzessiven Genuss einer Best (Space) Worscht zu beobachten.
Dafür dürfen wir uns dann über das Souvenir freuen, das Groundspeak zur Feier des Tages rausgibt.

Die üblichen Cacherfreuden, wie Tausch von Trackables und sonstiges Geobabbel sollen natürlich auch möglich sein.
