Today marks the 60th anniversary of the first American spacewalk! Astronaut Edward H. White II left his Gemini IV spacecraft #OTD in 1965—a monumental 23 minutes that paved the way for the dozens of NASA Astronauts who have followed in his footsteps.

King James VI & I (1567-1625) issued one of the most varied coinages of any monarch. Here's some of his Scottish & English coins from the Hunterian that display the massive range of different depictions used during his reign. They show James aged from 9 years old up to his 50s.

Do you know our origin story? In the mid-1960s, calculations revealed that a rare planetary alignment (occurring only every 175 years) would make it possible for a spacecraft to visit all four outer planets, using gravity assists to swing from one planet to the next.
