Geocache Description:


THERE IS NOTHING AT THE POSTED COORDINATES SO I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND GOING THERE. All containers have Rite in the Rain log sheets. When stopping please try not to interfere with the flow of traffic.

I remember how much I enjoyed watching the original Star Trek series when I was younger. Over the years I have continued to watch the various Star Trek series and movies and I have many favourite episodes and movies. This series of puzzles relates only to the 79 episodes of the original series not including the pilot episode.

Episode 35 - The Doomsday Machine

In this episode, the Enterprise is following a trail of mysteriously destroyed star systems and picks up an automated distress beacon from her sister ship, the USS Constellation and proceeds to her location. Upon arrival, the Constellation is found drifting in space, severely damaged, with her bridge uninhabitable. Kirk, McCoy, Scotty and a damage control team transport to the ship to evaluate her, and in the Auxiliary Control room they discover the Constellation's Captain Decker, who is suffering from severe mental trauma. Decker explains that he and his crew had discovered a giant machine, miles long, that used beams of antiprotons to tear planets apart, consuming the rubble for fuel.
