What happened this week across history? Quite a lot, as it turns out. On October 5, 1905, Orville and Wilbur Wright flew 24 miles over Ohio — proof that powered flight was no longer a dream. That same date in 1962, British cinemas screened Dr. No for the first time, introducing the world to Sean Connery's James Bond. And as if one revolution wasn't enough for a single day, the Beatles released Love Me Do in record shops across Britain that same afternoon.

The week stretches further. October 6, 1600 saw the first performance of Euridice in a Florentine palazzo — the earliest surviving opera, the seed of four centuries of music drama. On October 6, 1927, Al Jolson spoke on screen in The Jazz Singer and silent film died overnight. On October 7, 1571, the Battle of Lepanto shattered the myth of Ottoman naval invincibility in the Mediterranean. Two years short of four centuries later, on October 7, 1913, Henry Ford's first moving assembly line cut Model T build times from twelve hours to under two.

October 8, 1829 brought George Stephenson's Rocket thundering through the Rainhill Trials in Lancashire, ushering in the age of the railway. On October 8, 1956, Don Larsen pitched the only perfect game in World Series history at Yankee Stadium. And on October 9, 1604, Johannes Kepler observed a supernova blazing over Prague — the last one visible to the naked eye from within our own galaxy.

Ten events, five centuries, one unforgettable week.
