Geocache Description:



Oh Oh! Our Hero Spaceman Spiff mysteriously crash landed! Our only hope to figure out where he crashed is to decode this text that was intercepted as an emergency transmission from the black box of his space ship! Can you decode the message and find Spaceman Spiff before he is eaten by space aliens?!

The transmission was too garbled with interference to make out the rest. Our technicians were able, however, to put together a few final blips of data from the message. It may be the final clue needed to open the black box!
