Main event
The Earth passed through the tail of Halley's comet
May 19, 1910
May 19, 1910
Comet Halley (official name 1P / Halley) - the most popular of the comets. It orbits the Sun with a period of 74 to 79 years in a highly elongated elliptical orbit. During the appearance of the comet in 1835, spectral analysis revealed that molecular strips of cyanogen, carbon monoxide and other compounds were observed in cometary atmospheres. Therefore, rumors spread quickly about the poisoning of the Earth's atmosphere with poisonous cometary gases, which are dangerous to human health.
As predicted by astronomers, on May 19, 1910, the Earth "collided" with the tail of Halley's comet. However, even the most sensitive instruments did not detect any unusual phenomena in the Earth's atmosphere that could be unambiguously associated with this event. So the wave of fear that swept across many countries in May 1910, had no ground.
Passing through the tail of Halley's comet, the Earth played the role of a kind of probe. It should be noted that the Earth has already repeatedly passed through the tails of comets, and the effect has always been the same - the substance of the tails of various comets had no effect on processes in the terrestrial atmosphere.
Astronomers and many inhabitants of the Earth closely followed all the changes that took place in the tail and head of Halley's comet. Over the entire observation period, more than a thousand astro-negatives, more than a hundred spectrograms, hundreds of drawings of the comet and a large number of determinations of its equatorial coordinates at different times were obtained.
All this rich material made it possible to study in detail the character of the comet's motion along the orbit, to study the types, structural features, the chemical composition of its head and tail, and a number of other physical parameters of the comet's nucleus and its surrounding atmosphere. Benefit even art workers. And in Europe, and in Russia several artists have captured a heavenly object, well visible almost all the month to the naked eye. Halley's comet is the only short-period comet well visible to the naked eye.
The last perihelion was in February 1986; The next in the calculations of specialists will be in the middle of 2061.

On February 24, 1994, by unanimous decision, the Greek Parliament decided to consider May 19 as the Memorial Day of the Genocide of the Pontus Greeks by the Turks.
On December 18, 2007, the International Association of Genocide Scholars adopted a resolution recognizing the genocide of the Greeks and Assyrians in the Ottoman Empire in 1914–1923, calling on the Turkish authorities to recognize the genocide of Christian minorities, to apologize and pay damages.

1780 - an inexplicable phenomenon: A ''black day'', at 13 hours 25 minutes, over a large area of North America (in New England and parts of Canada), atmospheric transparency has decreased. Eyewitnesses described the phenomenon as "black canvas, covering the sky." Neither the stars nor the Moon was visible, although there was a full Moon. Only after midnight the Moon became visible, first blood-red, then the stars began to appear. The next morning was quite ordinary. The phenomenon was described in the Boston Independent Chronicle, dated May 22, 1780, mentioned in the Webster Dictionary. According to researchers from the American University of Missouri, the cause of the “black day” was the strong forest fires in Canada.
1802 - on the initiative of the First Consul of France Napoleon Bonaparte, the highest award of France was established - the National Order of the Legion of Honor. The universal reward, which did not know any social, national or professional restrictions, became the first of its kind symbol, which was designed to conform to the ideology of revolutionary social construction. History of the appearance of the order is more prosaic. Its introduction was urgently needed, since monetary rewards and named weapons, which were issued to worthy citizens, instead of the former royal awards, canceled by the Convention, became insufficient. "These pathetic trinkets can control people," said Napoleon I of the order he established.
1925 - born Malcolm X, originally named Malcolm Little (d. 1965). African American Islamic leader and advocate for the rights, named one of the most influential African Americans in history.
1926 - Thomas Edison made his first radio action. On the evening hosted by the National Electric Company in Atlantic City, he was asked to speak in front of a microphone. Confused, the inventor says: “I don’t know what to say ... For the first time I speak before such a thing. Good night!"
1941 - Nora Efron was born, an American filmmaker, producer and screenwriter, chief Hollywood expert on romantic comedies.

1998 - control of ''Galaxy IV'' (model HS-601 satellite built by Hughes Space and Communications Company (HSC)) was lost when the satellite's primary control processor failed because of undetected anomaly. The loss of this satellite was very disruptive to telecommunications in the United States. 80% of pager service in the U.S. went down; service was not restored till the following day. Many fast-pay gas pumps were not able to verify credit card transactions. Wire news services, like ''Reuters'', were also affected.
