About This Item

Major Tom to Space

While it may be too late for our Major Tom to be the first Travel Bug in Space, his spirits are not dampened.  If Elon Musk can launch a Tesla into Space, then why not our Travel Bug?

Found Major Tom at Hello Good/ Bybee. Will try to move him closer to his goal in a few weeks.

**Update- Major Tom graciously agreed to help with a school STLP (student technology leadership program) project and has been attending several activites as a part of this (family vacation, soccer game, academic team quiz meets....) we will be printing out and mapping the GPS coordinates of where he has been and will be going forward for this project. Thank you for the extra time Major Tom has been with us and we should be dropping him at a nearby TB motel soon to allow him to continue on his journey.

Found the travel bug Major Tom in Brookville, IN. Sorry, not going to make it to TN by Memorial Day Weekend 2009 because we are in Liberty, IN. We will drop it off at a cach in Kentucky in the next couple of days hopefully making it easier to get it to home! =D
