Mark Twain’s birth and death match with Halley’s Comet.

Samuel Langhorne Clemens, or otherwise known as Mark Twain, was born in 1835. It’s very interesting, but 1835 was also the year that Halley’s Comet made its first ever appearance. Mark Twain died in 1910, and according to the New York Times, this was the same year that Halley’s Comet was seen for the second and last time.

It’s even more interesting how the author famously predicted this would happen and the two events will coincide once again.

Twain was quoted as saying, “The Almighty has said, no doubt, ‘Now here are these two unaccountable freaks; they came in together, they must go out together.” And oh, how right he was. Remarkable, right?
