Typically, these caches are put in secluded parts of the world and national landmarks. Well, for the die hard geocache fan - you'll be pleased to know that geocaching is now 'out of this world'.
Geocacher and former astronaut Richard Garriott set up a cache 250 miles above the surface of the Earth on an object that travels at 17000 MPH. This object, of course, is the International Space Station (ISS)!
Richard Garriott set up the cache on the Space Station with the hopes that while space visits are becoming more and more frequent for astronauts, he believes that tourists will be able to head into space soon enough. He hopes that someone that goes up to space will be a geocacher like himself!
The cache is set up inside locker 218. Keep an eye out for it the next time you're hanging out at the International Space Station!
