Found 08 July 2005 npg found the geocache

Schwere Turbulenzen und Fehler im Antriebssystem verhindern ein Andockmanöver. Vorsichtshalber wird eine Weiterreise zum Charon für Reparaturen empfohlen.
Der erfolgreiche Besuch auf Charon, und Neukalibrierung des Bordcomputers führen beim Rückflug (kurz vor Erschöpfung der Energiereserven) zum erfolgreichen Andockmanöver!

Grübel,grübel Saturn war ziemlich schwer zu erreichen [:I]

thx npg
