It was April 18th 1775 and John William Adams climbed out of bed and walked across the room. He was dressed in a long white linen shirt that flowed down to his knees. The sleeves were a bit tattered and dirty, but it was the only shirt he owned. He walked over to the wash basin and started his morning ritual of shaving. It was expected that all members of the American militia be clean shaven. He splashed some cold water on his face from the wash basin and reached for his Perret razor which had an l-shaped wooden handle and long straight blade. After shaving he reached for his wool stockings and slipped them on. John Williams mother Constance had made the stockings from lamb’s wool the summer before.

In the early 16 century, Europeans learned about Natives in the Americas through images depicted by early conquerors.

This shows how much the world has grown and technology has increased throughout many centuries. With this new space view people can see weather patters; such as, they can watch as hurricanes form.
