Geocache Description:


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.


The Puzzle.

You will need to solve the below puzzle to work out the location of the cache itself.

Brother Colin has been rather busy recently, and was how he spends his evenings when not creating puzzles and hiding geocaches.
Here we have a summary of two weeks in the life of Brother Colin.

On Monday, he settled down to watch one of his favourite movies, "Transformers: Dark of the Moon". While probably not the best in the series, it certainly helped his research into space themed geocaches.
On Tuesday, he opted for another space film, "The Chronicles of Riddick". Who doesn’t love a good Vin Diesel movie?
Wednesday rolled around, but instead of watching a movie tonight, he took the opportunity to head out to the golf club where a geocaching event had been planned with a total of 27 attendees. A great time was had by all!
Thursday was a chance to reminisce and watch one of the greatest Star Trek movies ever made, "The Wrath of Khan".
On Friday, he decided to look for something a little more recent, and hired out "Star Wars : The Force Awakens". So exciting to see R2-D2 and C-3P0 in action once again, and great to see the addition of BB-8, is this another droid to be looking for?

The following week also turned into a movie marathon.
This time, he chose "Alien Resurrection" for his Monday night viewing, always good to see Ripley in action.
Tuesday evening was a chance to watch "Dune". The original as directed by David Lynch, or Alan Smithee depending on the version you watch. A classic film, although bagged by the critics it is still a pleasure to watch.
On Wednesday, continuing his space themed movie spree, he used his many contacts to obtain a bootleg version of "Star Wars : The Last Jedi". He has however been sworn to secrecy about the identity of the last Jedi.
Thursday night viewing was "2010 : The Year We Make Contact", not the greatest space movie ever made, but a very exciting story nonetheless.
As Friday coincided with a well earned day off, he decided to spend the day caching, managing a total of 151 caches for the day, and spent the evening writing logs. A great effort indeed!


Many thanks to Mr Eskie for helping me by creating this puzzle. (I think he has been stalking me!)
