The 1919 Eclipse Results Confirm General Relativity

Starts 11/06/1919CONFIRMED 85% CONFIDENCEWikipedia's^[1][2][3] Eddington experiment article dates the session: "The presentation of the results at the joint 6 November 1919 session of Royal Society and Royal Astronomical Society led to intensive press coverage first in Great Britain and a few days later in the US press". The eclipse itself was on 29 May 1919; this pin is the announcement, which is what made Einstein famous.

Arthur Eddington presents the results of the May 1919 eclipse expeditions to Principe and Sobral at a joint session of the Royal Society and the Royal Astronomical Society at Burlington House. The measured deflection of starlight matches Einstein's prediction, and the meeting accepts it.

Time Out Market Opens Its Global Flagship at 10 Piccadilly

Starts 08/31/2028SCHEDULED 73% CONFIDENCETime Out's^[1][3] own announcement of 6 August 2026 says the market will open "in the summer of 2028" at 10 Piccadilly. A season is a period, so the pin takes its last day; northern-hemisphere summer closes at the end of August, giving 31 August 2028. It will move when a day is published - this is two years out and the building is still in development.

Time Out brings its market home to the city where the magazine started in 1968: 26,400 square feet over three floors at 10 Piccadilly, on a long-term partnership with The Crown Estate, as the flagship of the whole portfolio.
