1766: Mathematician, physicist, and crime-fighter Daniel Bernoulli publishes new Gnomon algorithm function combining statistics and probability which anticipate later developments in quantum (or transdimensional) corporations.
1788: Physicist and academic Antoine César Becquerel born. He will pioneer the study of electric and luminescent phenomena.
1875: Flying bison (Bison pterobonasus) sighted near Roswell, New Mexico.
