    Crossovers on the calendar

    Every pair of events has a crossover. These are the next ones coming up, and the ones we passed most recently.

        A few comparisons worth a look.

          How it works

          Take two moments. The gap between them keeps the same length forever, but the later one keeps slipping further into the past. The crossover is the moment the later one is as far behind us as the earlier one was behind it. After that, we're further from it than it was from the other.

          Each event is dated as precisely as it's known. Two exact dates are compared to the day. If either one is only known to the month or the year, the comparison uses that instead, and the page says so.

          The events live in events.json on GitHub. Suggestions and pull requests are welcome.
