Geocache Description:


On a summer night in 1955, aliens landed at Kelly, Kentucky.

The Kelly incident of August 21, 1955 is one of the best-documented cases of an alien encounter. Multiple witnesses observed several alien creatures for an extended period of time. Soon after the encounter law enforcement officers and MPs from nearby Ft. Campbell arrived to investigate. Reporters were also on the scene and recorded detailed descriptions of the events.

Unfortunately, no one was able to communicate with the beings to determine their origins, their level of scientific knowledge and most importantly why they chose Kelly as their landing site.

If the aliens return When the aliens return, we must be ready to communicate!

Fortunately, government documents have been released recently, under the Freedom of Information Act, that may allow us to learn some of their language (or at least their number system). The document below was recovered by MPs at the Kelly site on the night of the encounter. The document is believed to be an attempt by the aliens to communicate their method of representing numbers.

              

Can you decipher the alien number system and use it to decrypt the cache coordinates below?
