Okay, I'll start this game off. I'll post a date and you have to try and guess what is so special about it. When you get the right answer, I'll verify it and you can do another date. You can include a hint if you wish.

Okay, what is special about:

8 September 2040
HINT: It's to do with the planets.

Okay I think I'll just tell you as it is a bit complex.

8 September 2040: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn will line up (I think Earth might too.)

Here's another one.

1 March 1997
HINT: Something about one of Nintendo's consoles.
