xkcd is always clever and funny. I like the digits of e and pi embedded in the last coordinates. By the way, the location is the rocket garden at Kennedy Space Center.
Wasn't it one of Greg Egan's novels in which an entity embedded a long message in the decimal expansion of a physical constant?
Cheers,
