The first moon landing

Obama becoming President, I think! I had a very old Elementary School teacher, and while she certainly used some not-okay words to explain the event to us, I think she was quite supportive of it. I must have been 9 years old? So either my memory is bad or there just weren't all that many interesting world events that I would have heard about when I was younger than that.

Elvis Presley’s death.

Desert Storm, in small part because my dad was in the AF and deployed to Saudi Arabia. It was pretty much all the news for the short amount of time that actual hostilities were occurring.

Probably the one with politician being unable to differentiate a box of wine and box with money. Czechs will know.

Partially because I lived through it, the ‘89 earthquake. I specifically remember not having power and then everything turning back on after midnight and what the news looked like (more grainy than normal) because I was afraid of the dark and hadn’t been able to sleep.

I remember us giving Hong Kong to China, and Princess Diana's horrible death.

As for the picture, I don't know what county it's from but it doesn't look like the British Broadcasting Corporation which would have been the dominant broadcaster of that era, so I wouldn't know.

Last manned moon landing.

Vague recollection of Rodney King & the LA Riots. After that would be the Northridge earthquake, because it woke me up.

2004 Tsunami in Thailand

Desert storm has ended announcement on the radio in a garage in a car. I said what's desert storm and I don't think it was explained and life went on

Honestly the earliest TV news memory I have is seeing heavy news coverage of John Lennon's murder.

Clearly, like vividly? OKC bombing. Think was 10.

I vaguely remember desert storm missle strike clips. I remember staying up to watch the ball drop in 91. But anything else on tv in the early 90s that didn't involve mutant turtles, power rangers, Italian plumbers, or mortal kombat is a blank.

• 93 Bombay bomb blasts
• Kargil war

Internationally

• Princess Diana's death

Reagan being shot

The Collapse. All the news agencies were calling it the "Resentment" for some reason. They were arguing about if some of the lower order dimensions would survive or not when all the aerovets went dark.

I looked out to see it approaching our crecheworld.

Space collapsing in fifteen dimensions is terrifyingly beautiful in its own way.

Margaret Thatcher getting rid of milk snacks in schools. I grew up in a mining town, so from a very young age, I was acutely aware of how much everyone hated Thatcher. However, I just thought that people really liked milk, and that's why they hated "Margaret Thatcher the milk snatched". I don't like the taste of milk on its own, and I can remember being 3 or 4 years old and bemused by the intensity of feelings towards her — I guessed that people must really like milk

Edit: turns out that the milk removal was before my time

Olof Palme getting killed or the USSR attack submarine getting stuck on a mititary beach whichever came first.

Protestors stealing a tank and driving it out of a museum into the crowd (nobody got hurt) during the 2006 protests that were the foundation to the Orbán regime.

Army public school attack in december 2014

Either the first Donald Trump presidency or maybe a bit before that with the Eurozone crisis and the collapse of BES

I don't remember the news, honestly. The biggest "news" I can remember in earnest was the release of Halo: CE, lol.
