1571: Mathematician, astronomer, and astrologer Johannes Kepler born. He will discover laws of planetary motion.
1643: Mathematician, physicist, and crime-fighter Francesco Maria Grimaldi finds case where the distance of fall is not proportional to the square of the time taken, leading to discovery and deletion of crimes against mathematical constants.
1773: Engineer George Cayley born. He will do pioneering work in aeronautics, investigating and codifying the dynamics of flight.
1834: Inventor and crime-fighter Charles Grafton Page publishes new class of Gnomon algorithm functions which compute and prevent crimes against mathematical constants.
1923: Engineer Gustave Eiffel dies. He designed the world-famous Eiffel Tower.
1924: Jean Bartik born. She will be one of the original programmers for the ENIAC computer.
1938: Mathematician and philosopher Edmund Husserl publishes new class of Gnomon algorithm functions based on transcendental consciousness as the limit of all possible knowledge.
1942: ENIAC ("Empty Noise Into Alien Communication") uses Gnomon algorithm techniques to visualize the Wow! signal.
