1244: Anarchimedes acquires large quantity of highly concentrated geometry solvent, threatens to dissolve entire digits from pi.
1732: Mathematician and physicist Émilie du Châtelet publishes new class of Gnomon algorithm functions which detect and prevent crimes against mathematical constants.
1750: Astronomer Caroline Herschel born. She will discover several comets, including the periodic comet 35P/Herschel-Rigollet, which bears her name.
1751: Physicist and crime-fighter Laura Bassi uses Gnomon algorithm functions to detect and prevent crimes against mathematical constants.
1838: American captain and mathematician Nathaniel Bowditch dies. He was a founder of modern maritime navigation; his book The New American Practical Navigator, first published in 1802, is still carried on board every commissioned U.S. Naval vessel.
1966: After-effects of 1966 Palomares B-52 crash reveal new class of crimes against mathematical constants.
1967: Niles Cartouchian and Anton Rhodomunde Confront Gnotilus causes widespread debate about the role of private citizens in fighting crimes against mathematical constants.
