We begin at Runnymede in 1215, where rebellious barons forced King John to seal the Magna Carta — the document that first declared no ruler stood above the law. From there we trace Francis Drake's audacious 1579 landing on the California coast, claimed for Queen Elizabeth in defiance of Spanish authority, and the white-knuckle 1919 transatlantic flight of Alcock and Brown, who crash-landed in an Irish bog and walked away grinning after fifteen hours of fog and ice.
In 1963, Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman in space, orbiting Earth 48 times aboard Vostok 6 — a record that still stands for solo female spaceflight. Two years later, June 19, 1865 saw Union soldiers ride into Galveston, Texas, finally delivering the news of emancipation to enslaved people — a day now honoured as Juneteenth. The very same date in 1964 saw the US Senate pass the Civil Rights Act after one of the longest filibusters in its history.
We also revisit the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, which ended Napoleon's return from exile; the catastrophic eruption of Mount Pinatubo in 1991, which cooled the entire planet; the 1673 canoe expedition of Marquette and Jolliet into the Mississippi; and the London premiere of Evita in 1978. And in the summer of 1975, Steven Spielberg's Jaws opened wide — and invented the modern blockbuster.
