Starship Enterprise Geo-Art
Welcome to the ‘Starship Enterprise’ Geo-Art. Each puzzle is different ,themed around SPACE and is ‘hopefully’ designed to help you learn a little about different types of puzzles. Some will obviously be a little harder than others but should be doable with a little patience.
Please remember to return and cover the container as you found it to ensure its’ longevity, and when visiting stay safe and abide by the geocacher’s creed. http://www.geocreed.info/
Some of the rural roads may be rough, narrow, have roaming livestock or be flooded during heavy rain events, so please drive to suit the conditions and the limitations of your vehicle and driver.
I had quite a bit of help creating these puzzles from a variety of 'puzzle makers' out there. You will find a note of thanks and a link to one of their puzzles at the bottom of the page.
The cache is NOT at the published co-ordinates.
Starship Enterprise
USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) is a starship in the fictional Star Trek universe, depicted in four network television series, six feature films, and countless books and fan-created media. The original Star Trek series (1966–1969) features a voice-over by Enterprise captain, James T. Kirk (William Shatner), which describes the mission of Enterprise as "to explore strange new worlds; to seek out new life and new civilizations; to boldly go where no man has gone before". The ship's design "formed the basis for one of sci-fi's most iconic images," though the ship has gone over many changes over the course of its television and cinematic appearances.

Captain’s log stardate 56277.981. We are on a mission to the Klingon Homeworld where Worf has taken shore leave to explore more of his Klingon heritage. Unfortunately for Worf, we need his warrior skills back aboard the Enterprise to complete our latest mission from Starfleet Command in California on Earth. The Mission brief is to go back in time to when Earth was seen to be undergoing an increased activity in Geocaching. In order to achieve this miraculous achievement, the Ambassador Class Starship Enterprise, will have to outperform beyond her usual specifications. The ship carries her name well which has been used since early 20th century space flight. We intend to utilise the Earth’s sun’s gravitational pull which will create a fold in the space time continuum, allowing us to travel back in time to 26 September 2325 : 05:09:48. I expect the very best from my full complement of star fleet officers. Once our mission has been achieved, I expect we will have completed our mission and return to our timeline, report to Starfleet Command with a full briefing of the implications of how geocaching has evolved in the 23rd Century by 22 February 2338 : 11:39:10. Captain Picard, end log.
Many thanks to Slow Puncture for helping me by creating this puzzle.
