So, where I was last week....

I've mentioned elsewhere I believe that I teach cave rescue techniques.
Once a year the organization I'm with does a week long training seminar.

What's that got to do with ssh you may ask?

Let's just say the area I was in has lots of karst and was home to three
astronauts, one of whom has an airport named after them.

I'll let others figure out exactly where that is.

(Oh and drove by the airport too.)

KARST!?
Not them! The Deros are bad enough, but I didn't suspect that your
"colonists" were the Karst.
It's a _good_ thing that they are getting White Nose Syndrome and dying,
before they can start harvesting human organs again...and laying their
eggs in the unfortunate victims.
You go to the doctor right now Mr. Moore and get a whole-body X-ray, for
it's a rare person who goes into a Karst-infested cave and emerges with
everything inside of him that he started out with.
And pray to God those X-rays don't show a group of grape-sized eggs
lurking in your large intestine....assuming you _still have_ a large
intestine. :-)

OK, I'll bite, Mike Smith has an airport named after him in
Beaufort NC. Don't know about home to 3 astronauts, haven't been
on Google enough yet.

There's this about karst in NC:

Nope.

Though I will say surprisingly, while I drove by the airport, and saw the
name, I don't easily find mention of it on google.

Tom Stafford Airport, in Weatherford, OK?

Good try, but not to many caves there that I know of.

Nah - Jose Jimenez in in Nevada.
How far into Nevada we're not really sure.

Is that your Crash Helmet?
Ooh - I hope not!

Indiana?

karst = Karst is a special type of landscape that is formed by the
dissolution of soluble rocks, including limestone and dolomite.
