In this year the RMS Queen Mary 2, at the time the largest ocean liner ever built, is christened by its namesake's granddaughter, Queen Elizabeth II. 2 of NASA's MER-A (Spirit) and MER-B (Opportunity) spacecrafts lands on the surface of Mars. Mark Zuckerberg creates the social networking site Facebook (for Harvard University only at this time).
