A Chronicle of 6 Decades: 1964–2024

2004–14: Facebook and the iPhone A 23-year-old Mark Zuckerberg created Facebook on Feb. 4, 2004. The company, now Meta, would later become worth nearly $843.6 billion and a dominant social media platform. Then, on Jan. 9, 2007, Steve Jobs revealed the very first iPhone, and since then, 18 models have been created. 2014–24: Reaching Pluto and Beyond Three billion miles from Earth, the first man-made object flew past Pluto on July 14, 2015. The NASA spacecraft New Horizons captured jaw-dropping photographs of the dwarf planet that wowed the world. Of course, there have been many more unbelievable moments in history since 1964, but this just proves there is still so much more to look forward to. The best is yet to come!

As my 60th birthday comes closer, I have been thinking about everything I have experienced in these past six decades. Just as we have handled hard before, we have also experienced plenty of achievements. How about we look at some monumental events that made each decade memorable, dating back to when I was born in 1964? 1964–74: The First Man on the Moon We cannot skip over the first man on the moon! On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins became the first crew to ever set foot on the moon. Perhaps not as legendary, but still incredible was the Mets winning the World Series that same year. This would be the only championship for the Mets until 1986. 1974–84: The Internet Personal home computers, or PCs, started entering the market

in the 1970s. Some of the earliest models included Commodore PET and Radio Shack’s TRS-80. However, it was not until Jan. 1, 1983, that the internet was born. 1984–94: The Berlin Wall and Cellphones On Nov. 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall fell. Germany was united after over two decades of division. The event would cause “the greatest street party in the history of the world,” according to one witness. Also known as “The Brick,” the hefty Motorola DynaTAC 8000X would become a popular cellphone (for those who could afford it). 1994–2004: Google and the ISS On Nov. 2, 2000, the International Space Station (ISS) became operational. Since then, more than 273 people from 21 countries have visited the ISS. Meanwhile, Google started its rise to ubiquity after its creation in 1998.
