Geocache Description:

It’s time for Brussels to join the Global Space Geo Event of celebrating exploration and a Travel Bug visiting the International Space Station. To mark this very special and exceptional occasion, let’s meet on November 6 at 18:30 at Place Jourdan very thematically named Greek establishment “Kosmos.”


Geocaching in Space Event to look foward to a succesfull launch.

NASA Astronaut Robert Mastracchio

Meet at the Kosmos Place, Place Jourdan 35 - 1040 Etterbeek November 6 from 18:30 till 20:00 

A travel bug is being taken to the Internation Space Station by NASA Astronaut Robert Mastracchio. Drink a toast to the travel bug which should soon be orbiting the earth and the intrepid astronaut cacher. The launch is due to take place from Kazakhstan at 4.08 GMT on Saturday 7th November 2013 which will be 6th November at 8.08pm in Los Angeles.

Groundspeak will award a "Geocaching in Space Souvenir" for every Geocacher who attends a Geocaching Space event smiley

So there is no reason why we should not have an event to wish Rick Mastracchio and the Travel Bug a succesful launch.

 

Practical information for Brussels visitors - Place Jourdan is located close to the EU district and is also home to the famous Friterie. To get there take a metro (line 1 or 5) to Schuman and walk down Froissart Street (for some 5-7 minutes) till you see the square. Kosmos should be in the end of it.

Take TBs and smile with you!

And I'm new to Brussels, so I'm very much looking forward to meet everyone and any suggestions are very welcome. Looking forward to see you soon!
