Geocaching will be returning to space in the form of a Geocaching Travel Bug aboard a Nov. 6th rocket launch to the International Space Station so lets celebrate!
When: Nov. 6/13 @ 6 pm
Where: Pizza Delight Village Square Mall
American astronaut Rick Mastracchio will be carrying the Travel Bug and 11 hitchhikers into orbit for his 8 month stay aboard the ISS.
Mastracchio will be using the Travel Bug as an educational tool to help teach students around the world about geography and provide other educational lessons.
When Rick Mastracchio arrives at the ISS, he'll also be logging the universe's most elusive FTF. The ISS geocache has never been logged in person.
To help celebrate this rare happening, Geocachers will meet at events happening worldwide on November 6th and 7th.
Anyone who attends an event on the planned (hopeful!) launch date will receive a Geocaching.com souvenir
