Geocache Description:


The following is taken from The Geocaching Blog

800+ Events Celebrate Geocaching Launch into Space

It’s the Travel Bug® that’s taking the global Geocaching community on a rocket ride to space. Whether you’re in Mexico or France, Australia or Korea you’re primed to join the geocaching community in celebrating the spirit of exploration. There are more than 800 Geocaching in Space events scheduled around the world. Those who attend Event Caches on either November 6 or November 7 earn the Geocaching in Space souvenir.

Join the adventure and watch the launch live as Astronaut Rick Mastracchio packs the Travel Bug along on his 6 month mission aboard the International Space Station. He’ll use the Travel Bug as a tool to teach students back on earth about geography and science. Geocaching HQ is offering a limited edition Geocaching in Space Mission Patch. Geocaching will donate proceeds from the patch to Donorschoose.org for use in funding projects that use geocaching as an educational tool.

The bug that will be traveling is the International Space Station Travel Bug II by the 5th Grade Class of Chase Elementary School-Waterbury, CT

Date: Thursday, November 7th
Place: Colssessano's off of the Pierpont Road Exit, Main Dining Room
Time: 6:00 PM until whenever

The actual launch is late on the 6th so we hope to have someone who is able to record the launch and bring it for us to view!
