CTF Challenge #1: The Grapefruit That Never Fell
I am smaller than a football, yet I have outlived every empire that was watching when I left.
My makers failed once, loudly, in front of the whole world. Then they tried again, quietly, and I was the answer.
I carry no engine, no crew, and no voice anymore. The Sun fed me once, and now only the silence is left.
Strangers once joked that I looked like a fruit, but the joke is on them: I have not rotted in over sixty years.
I never stay in one place, yet I always come back above you.
🎯 Your mission: Work out who I am. Then tell us the exact spot on Earth where I took my first and last step upward.
