You could do a space cache now.  Just pick something in space and have them
send a picture of it and the coords they they were at when they took it.  It
will definatly be a difficult cache.  I know that I used to constantly see
yellow jeeps everywhere, but the second you have a camera in hand they are
nowhere to be seen.   I've been hauling my camera around for weeks trying to
get a pic of one.   Of couse the second jason finds wyle e in the wild, and
actually does have a camera... he forgets to take the all important picture.
D'oh.

Maybe the next time a comet comes around we can turn it into a cache.  That
would be pretty funny to have a cache thats only available to log every 200
years or so :)
