HistoryPhotos is for photographs (or, if it can be found, film) of the past, recent or distant! Give us a little snapshot of history!

Rules

  1. Be respectful and inclusive.
  2. No harassment, hate speech, or trolling.
  3. Foster a continuous learning environment.
  4. No genocide or atrocity denialism.
  5. Photos MUST be at LEAST 10 years old, and ideally over 20. We appreciate that we are living through events which will become history, but this is ultimately not a comm for news or current affairs, but events which have occurred some time in the past.

We just need a little more compute, and then all our plans will be in reach. Please pledge $100 billion today. We can only guarantee a 5000% ROI in ten years. And you'll even get this cool mug. See, it says "Space Wiz." Wouldn't it look great on your desk?
