Return visit to inspect Crop Circles in Hawaii report of incident:

We had just completed inspecting crop circles and were taking a few photos for our scrapbook, when my Wookie friend accidentally kicked my Light Saber out the cargo hatch.

The following is all of the information we have as to it’s whereabouts:

Attached Photo was taken as we departed the Crop Circles upon liftoff. You need to find this location, using any tools at your disposal.

Red arrow indicates location of metal disk, coordinates yet to be determined.

There is a 4-foot concrete column located 355 feet at 116 degrees mag.from the metal disk.

The coordinates of this column are needed to determine the location of the lost Light Saber. (We used that location of this column to honor the start of our project.)

Once you have the coordinates of the column, you need to subtract 1.109 from it’s North coordinate and add .117 to the West.

The total of all of the digits of both the North and the West Coordinates of the column equal 51

It is recommended that you drive from the column to the start of your search.

All of this information was verified by our onboard computer.

We did have time to fire off a locator probe the hit very close to the spot where the saber landed. Serial number of the yellow probe is ES 610. (See photo)

The probe landed approximately 12 feet East of the impact zone. Photos indicate the location of the yellow probe. About 12 feet from the probe looking West is a steel post (See photo). About 10 feet South of the steel post is the where the Light Saber should be (See photo). I am sure it is under a plant with some very sharp edges, so take care.

Lucky for us (and for you) our sensors indicate that the Saber’s power source was damaged upon impact.

DO NOT push the On button.
