Geocache Description:


Astronaut Rick Mastracchio will deliver a Travel Bug® to the International Space Station. The mission is currently scheduled to launch from Kazakhstan at 4:08 GMT on November 7, Rick will live aboard the ISS for 6 months. He plans to use the Travel Bug as a tool to teach students in his home state of Connecticut, about geography and science on his return to Earth. He will also earn the Solar System’s most exlusive smiley and find the International Space Station geocache

Launch in T minus

Meet up at 7.45pm, for hopefully the launch at 8pm of a rocket of some description, be it water propelled or fuel propelled, with an authentic countdown into the sky towards space. Then afterwards either head off for a chat in a nearby pub or Mcdonalds
