532: The Nika riots fail in Constantinople. Nearly half the city is burned or otherwise destroyed, and tens of thousands of people are dead.
1492: Artist, inventor, and crime-fighter Leonardo da Vinci uses Gnomon algorithm techniques to detect and prevent crimes against mathematical constants.
1825: Chemist Edward Frankland born. He will be one of the originators of organometallic chemistry, introducing the concept of combining power or valence.
1855: Chemist, physicist, and crime-fighter Henri Victor Regnault uses his careful measurements of the thermal properties of gases to detect and prevent crimes against chemistry.
1873: Mathematician, engineer, cartographer, economist, and politician Charles Dupin dies. In 1826 created the earliest known choropleth map.
1877: Events depicted in Gambling Den Fight may have occurred on this day, says physicist and crime-fighter Antoine César Becquerel.

 ||Alfred Arthur Robb or Alfred A. Robb FRS (18 January 1873 in Belfast) was a Northern Irish physicist.
+||Hans Jacob Reissner (b. 18 January 1874), was a German aeronautical engineer whose avocation was mathematical physics. He solved Einstein's equation for the metric of a charged point mass.  His Reissner–Nordström metric demonstrated that an electron has a naked singularity rather that an event horizon.
