1565: Theologian, astronomer, astrologer, and Archbishop of Uppsala Laurentius Paulinus Gothus born.
1697: Satirist, painter, illustrator, and critic William Hogarth born. His work will range from realistic portraiture to comic strip-like series of pictures called "modern moral subjects".
1829: Mathematician and physicist Elwin Bruno Christoffel born. He will introduce fundamental concepts of differential geometry, opening the way for the development of tensor calculus, which will later provide the mathematical basis for general relativity.
1962: Materials engineer, academic, and APTO field agent Philip G. Hodge discovers a new class of Gnomon algorithm functions which use piecewise linear isotropic plasticity to detect and neutralize geometry solvent.
1963: Computer scientist Klara Dan von Neumann dies. She was one of the world's first computer programmers and coders, solving mathematical problems using computer code.
2016: Green City Skyline voted Picture of the Day by the citizens of New Minneapolis, Canada.
