Lost in Space…really! A cache!

[Trekkin and Birdin]

Just found out about this one.

Don’t think I can convince Trekkin’ to go for it, though. He won’t even fly in airplanes, much less space shuttles!

I see that someone requested archive as it didn’t fit guidelines (at least that’s what I think they were saying). I was looking at it thinking this must be the last locationless cache if I understand the definition of them.
I see that the powers that be approved it so I would assume that the maintenance log will disappear.

Edit for: change from maintenance to archive and to also say I looked up the person that requested archive is banned now.. first time I’ve found a banned profile on geocaching.

Yes, this one does not meet the guidelines, but the Groundspeak folks couldn’t resist. You can do that when you own the site.

Sometimes you’ve just gotta have a little fun!

Trekkin’ wants to know where the parking coords are. 🙄

I had it on the Watchlist and there are a ton of logs that were Archived… including mine! 😡

This isn’t the same guy who was mentioned a few weeks back for the armchair caching incident, is it? 🙄

parking coords for now would be Cape Canaveral in FL but soon only somewhere in Russia

[Captain and Mate]

Duh! On second thought, if he was previously banned, he wouldn’t have logged on this cache today. Never mind! 😳

Its not hard to get banned from GC. It almost happened to me, and it was a simple little link in my forum sig. Mainly put there as a joke. But GC didn’t see it that way

Since this cache was approved by the Head Frog himself, I’m pretty sure it won’t get archived for not meeting the guidlines.

Do you know they were archived because you recall them disappearing or is there something that shows how many were archived? Just curious.

I saw several come and go today…..two attempts to archive from Germany ….different names – one with good English & one not so much – …..and another log seemed to be of an ‘astronaut’ who went to the station and logged it…had photos to prove it….all went pooof!

The profile of the cacher who placed this is interesting. One found cache (outside his house it seems) and two placed caches, both extreme hides. His bio: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Garriott

I wonder what the backstory is regarding the placement of these “caches.” Anyone know?

gr… When I noticed this one from the first thread, I put it on the Watchlist. I was the 3rd one to post a note, asking where the coordinates were obtained. My log was Archived about 90 minutes later, but I had 18 e-mails from it being on the Watchlist! About half were in a foreign language.
I was wondering what the comments would be, and some of the Archived logs weren’t very flattering! I see they kept the “positive” logs on the cache page.

I would call this a “novelty cache”, and leave it active. Even for astronauts, “All work and no caching makes…”.

This wasn’t cache #1,000,000, was it?
