  • Need a little help with a project (sci-fi related)

    Every year I make a calendar for the local gaming club. This year I wanted to add dates and anniversaries from science fiction sources (books, movies, TV, etc.) that either haven't happened yet (Captain Kirk's birthday) or have past but didn't actually happen (the Moon leaving Earth's orbit).

    Here's what I have, and I need more:

    September 25, 2010 - last murder in Los Angeles (Demolition Man)
    August 29, 1997 - SkyNet launches nuclear strike to kill mankind (T2)
    January 12, 1992 - HAL created/born (2010)
    September 13, 1999 - Earth's moon blown out of orbit (Space: 1999)
    March 22, 2225 - James T. Kirk born (Star Trek)
    December 31, 1999 - Philip J. Fry frozen (Futurama)
    October 16, 1997 - Robinson Family ship becomes lost in space (Lost in Space)
    December 22, 2012 - world ends/alien colonize Earth (Mayan calendar/X-Files)
    April 5, 2063 - Cochrane invents Warp Drive (Star Trek: First Contact)
    November 5, 19555 - Flux Capacitor invented (Back to the Future)

    Please help by adding to the list. I'd prefer solid dates and not just month/year ones, if at all possible.

        A quick search didn't turn up anything with finer grain than month/year. Most only had year.

          One where (unfortunately) I only have the year is:

          1987 - Ranger 3 (America's last deep space probe) is launched (Buck Rogers in the 25th Century)
