On this day in history, November 14th, we celebrate a day of diverse and impactful events. In 1851, Herman Melville's epic novel, Moby Dick, was published in the United States. Fast forward to 1967, American physicist Theodore Maiman received a patent for his groundbreaking invention: the ruby laser systems, marking the birth of the world's first laser. Later that same year, Colombia established "Day of the Colombian Woman" to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the death of Policarpa Salavarrieta. And let's not forget 1969, when NASA launched Apollo 12, the second crewed mission to land on the Moon. Join us as we explore these historical milestones and the fascinating stories behind them.
