Yep. The flight prediction model had it landing somewhere near Newellton, LA which is pretty open farm land. Hopefully it landed in a soybean or cotton field rather than a corn field and a farmer will find it before it gets run over by a tractor.

Oddly enough, our utter failure has sparked great enthusiasm about trying again. We are taking the lessons learned and are already planning to try again but next time with redundant tracking systems.
