Description
March 13th, what a fine day to exist! The birds are chirping—hopefully in tune—and somewhere out there, someone just realized they left their coffee on top of their car. But...
show moreOn this day in 1781, the ever-curious Sir William Herschel discovered a brand-new planet: Uranus. Yes, the seventh planet from the Sun. Now, let's be mature about this. We can acknowledge that it’s been the cosmic butt of jokes for centuries, but let’s give it the respect it deserves. It’s a giant ball of gas, tilted on its side, spinning in ways no other planet dares to spin. And thanks to Herschel’s keen eye and probably a very foggy telescope, humanity realized there was more to our solar system than we previously thought. So, hats off to you, Sir Herschel—though you originally thought Uranus was a comet, and we’ll let that oversight slide.
But let’s pivot from planets to people, because today is also the birthday of a truly talented human being—Adam Clayton, the bassist of the legendary band U2. Born on this day in 1960, Clayton is the steady, rhythmic backbone behind hits like "With or Without You" and "Sunday Bloody Sunday." Without him, Bono would just be yelling poetically into the void. And honestly, what is a great rock band without a killer bassline? Answer: just a bunch of people arguing over what the chorus should be. So, happy birthday, Adam Clayton! May your day be filled with great music, good vibes, and as few bass-related puns as possible—though I can’t promise anything.
So, whether you're discovering a new planet, laying down the bassline for an iconic song, or just trying to keep your coffee from flying off the roof of your car, March 13th is a good day to be alive. Now, go forth, celebrate, and, if you can, take a moment to appreciate that somewhere, far beyond the reaches of our atmosphere, Uranus is still spinning proudly in the cold depths of space.
