Mother to the future King of England
Diana married Prince Charles on 29 July 1981 at 11.17.30 am in St. Paul's Cathedral, London. As she developed, Diana was unable to fit in to the role required and history will perhaps view her as a quiet maverick who altered, and perhaps began the demise of, the British royal family. The couple divorced, with both parties having admitted adultery, on 28 June 1996. Diana died shortly after a car crash at 00:27 in Paris on 31 August 1997.

Gates was a computer whizz from childhood, and being too bright, was an under-achiever in math. He built a homemade computer whilst at Harvard in 1974, and when he dropped out of college, formed the Microsoft Corporation. The company was went public in 1986, and within five years, Gates was a billionaire. He married on 1 January 1994, and began building a $40 million home in Seattle.

Kepler was a key figure in the 17th century astronomical revolution. He is best known for his eponymous laws of planetary motion, codified by later astronomers based on his works Astronomia nova (A New Astronomy, published 1609), Harmonices Mundi (Harmony of the Worlds, 1619), and Epitome of Copernican Astronomy (Epitome of Copernican Astronomy, 1618-1621) .
Before Kepler, planets' paths were computed by combinations of the circular motions of the celestial orbs. After Kepler, astronomers shifted their attention from orbs to orbits - paths that could be represented mathematically as an ellipse.
Kepler's laws also provided one of the foundations for Isaac Newton's theory of universal gravitation.
Kepler died on 15 November 1630 in Regensburg, Bavaria, Germany.

SOURCE: Sy Scholfield quotes data from a horoscope drawn up by Kepler at age 26, as transcribed in Éric Lindemann's book, "Mécanique: Une introduction par l'histoire de l'astronomie" (De Boeck Université, 1999), p. 104: 'Johannes Kepler, conçu le 16 mai 1571 à 4 heures 37 du matin, est né le 27 décembre à 2 heures 30 de l'après-midi, après une grossesse de 224 jours, 9 heures et 53 minutes'... ! Ces précisions, de Kepler lui- même, sont indiquées dans un horoscope qu'il fit de lui à l'âge de 26 ans."

Caro studied chemistry and dyeing in Berlin at the Royal Trades Institute and the University of Berlin. He trained as a calico printer in Germany, worked at a calico printing works in Mülheim and then worked at a chemical firm in Manchester.
Caro was responsible for indigo research at the Badische Anilin und Soda Fabrik (BASF) laboratory, and he and Adolf von Baeyer synthesised the first indigo dye in 1878. Caro also patented the dye alizarin on behalf of BASF.
His research helped to define the structure of triphenylmethane, the parent compound of rosaniline dyes. He created the dyes: flourescent red, methylene blue, orange and fast red, naphthol yellow, and persulfuric acid, also known as "Caro's acid." He died on 11 October 1910 in Dresden, Germany.

SOURCE: Sy Scholfield quotes Carsten Reinhardt & Anthony Selwyn Travis's book, "Heinrich Caro and the Creation of Modern Chemical Industry" (2000), p. 302: "he was unhappy to have been born on the 13th (as he had been informed, though in fact it appears, according to [his daughter] Amalie, that he was actually born at 1 am on the 14th).

Sir Humphry Davy's 1806 Bakerian Lecture "On Some Chemical Agencies of Electricity" was central to any chemical affinity theory in the first half of the ninteenth century. He is probably best remembered today for experimentation with laughing gas, and for his discoveries of several alkali and alkaline-earth elements, as well as contributions to the discoveries of the elemental nature of chlorine and iodine. He invented the Davy lamp which was widely used by miners, and gave chlorine its name. Davy died on 29 May 1829 in Switzerland.

SOURCE: Sy Scholfield quotes John Munro's book, "Pioneers of Electricity; Or, Short Lives of the Great Electricians" (Religious Tract Society, 1890), p. 105: "Davy, the eldest son of Grace and Robert Davy, was born at Penzanze, near the Land's End, on the I7th of December, 1778, about 5 o'clock in the morning by the register of his father in the family Bible."

I have the Sun, Pluto, Mars, and the Moon in a tight Tsquare...I am very much an instigator by nature and always have been. It's like its a basic instinct (Moon) to do it, as if it's just nature or habit.

Not a good habit of course

“It is absolutely the perfect name,” Dr. Brown said, given the continuing discord among astronomers and the public over whether Pluto should have retained its planetary status.

In mythology, Eris ignited discord that led to the Trojan War.

“She causes strife by causing arguments among men, by making them think their opinions are right and everyone else’s is wrong,” Dr. Brown said. “It really is just perfect.”
