I’ve met people while hiking who were Geocaching. Adding the Story of the Universe to the object to be found is a great idea. Introducing the gaming aspect helps to bring in young people too. Thanks Fred for letting us know about this.

Hello, from my point of view of audiovisual and multimedia creator, i believe that there is a great opportunity to think about documentaries like this one as a open door to the access of online didactic media for teachers and students.
