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.
Where Am I?
I am usually able to find my way around a map or from place to place in real life. I rarely get “geographically embarrassed” and my knowledge of places in the world usually enables me to locate them from information given.
However, today I have received a request to work out a location and then check it with some Certitude!
The information document gave me the following information and I admit that I am struggling to work out the correct location.
“The location is owned by an organisation that is linked to the Phoenix.
The work carried out at that location is regarded by some as the 6th best in Australia.
This is probably because of the items used at the location rather than the research into climate-related functions.
It is some kilometers distant from any major centre to assist with the effective working of my 3 optical instruments.
These instruments have enabled my staff to discover KELT-10b.
My final observation (to assist in your discovery) is to tell you that I could be a high spot in an UK county.
If you are certain you have found me, check below by entering my name in Capitals and as one long word.”
Many thanks to Membsec for helping me by creating this puzzle.
You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
