Scroll back in time ↓01The weather outside
Before the weather records began.
Hourly climate records for this spot begin in 1940, so this day stays a little mysterious.
02The sky that night
A waning crescent watched over you.
1% lit · 28.4 days into its cycle
No bright planets were above Orenburg's horizon that evening — the moon had the sky to itself.
It was winter in your half of the world.
The Moon was 399,925 km away — farther than usual.
03On every radio
Before the charts began.
The weekly singles chart we use begins in August 1958 — your day predates it.
