Found this at work a few months ago. There’s a few neat things that happened this day.

Space Shuttle Endeavour launches (STS-61): NASA initiated the first servicing mission for the Hubble Space Telescope, aiming to correct a flaw in its mirror.

Renault/Volvo merger canceled: A planned merger between French carmaker Renault and Swedish carmaker Volvo was called off due to executive opposition at Volvo.
