2003: On 29 May 2003, the Fregat/Soyuz launcher with ESA's Mars Express mission aboard was moved into a vertical position at the launch pad in Baikonur, Kazakhstan.

1919: On 29 May 1919, astronomers trying to confirm Einstein's Theory of General Relativity observed a total solar eclipse.

The stars' positions were found to be distorted, confirming the theory.
