This cache is an eleven part multi along the Science Center's Sagan Planet Walk. The first five parts are all with 100 feet of the posted coordinates (obvious when you get there). Five of the remaining six are within 3/4 of a mile of the start point. The last part had to be adjusted to allow for an actual trading size container because I know I would be upset to do ten stages and find a micro.
The first ten stages are along The Science Center's Sagan Walk (website link above). It is my intention that you use the plaques on the monoliths to answer the follow questions to get the coordinates.
North ~ 42 AB.CDE
West ~ 76 FG.HIJ
A ~ Sunlight takes ___ to reach Earth. Subtract 6.4 to get A.
B ~ The diamete of Earth equals ___ Mercury diameters. Add 2.4 to get B.
C ~ Venus has how many known moons?
D ~ The Earth's Moon's year equals __7.3 days
E ~ Two years on Mars is just shy of _ years on Earth.
F ~ Jupiter emits almost ___ times as much radiation as it recieves from the sun.
G ~ If you weighed a hundred pounds here on Earth you would only gain __ pounds if you moved to Saturn. Add 3.(SITE UNDER CONSTRCTION. ANSWER IS 9)
H ~ The sculpture for Uranus shows it's _ largest moons? Add 1.
I ~ The diameter of Neptune equals 3._ Earth diameters.
J ~ One Pluto day equals ___ plus .6 (6/10) Earth Days.
As stated this is along the Sagan Planet Walk and it is my intentions that you actually visit each monolith. Every answer can be found on the monoliths and if you try researching then your results may very.
The container holds two adult tickets and two children ticket to the Science Center for the FTF (if you won't use them please leave them for someone who will), some glow sticks and bracelets, as well as a few thing I picked up at the Science Center. PLEASE TRADE WITHIN THE SPACE/SOLAR SYSTEM THEME (any TB welcome).
You can park near the Ithaca Commons (and pay) and walk through and back or park at the Science Center (or near which is free) and walk to the beginning and back. Either way you'll need to drive to the last part and park in the lot at about: N42 25.064 W76 29.900 and then walk up the dirt road/trail.
The Sagan Planet Walk is all accessible by wheel (wheel chair, bike, strollers etc.) but the last leg will not be accessible by wheel chair.
