Number 10: Hawaiian Missile Crisis Scare.
Let's start off with a "bang", or at the very least, one that was thought to have happened. And ironically, this one actually did happen near the beginning of the year. January 13th, 2018 started out like any other day in Hawaii. But then, people got an alert on their phones, one that warned them that a missile was in-bound towards the islands.
Now, if you got that message right now, you'd think it was a prank. Except, that this message came via official channel. Making everyone freak out about what exactly was going on.
Eventually, order was restored when another message was sent out stating that there was no missile, and the first alert was an accident.
Apparently, the people in charge of such a message were hosting an "exercise" about what to do should such a missile attack happen. An employee didn't know it was a drill, and sent out the message. He has since been fired, and more security procedures have been put into place to ensure that this doesn't happen again...hopefully.
Number 9: Royal Wedding.
Who doesn't love a wedding? Ok, many of us don't love weddings. But, the world was captivated by the lead-up and fruition of the marriage between Prince Harry of England and American actress Meghan Markle.
Their love story was one right out of a fairy tale (or maybe a Hallmark movie, depending on your taste). They met at a party, and were a very unlikely couple. Mainly because the Royal Family has often had very strict tastes in terms of spouses. And Markle broke every single rule. She was a divorcee, and not fully white, being of mixed descent via her parents. Which, was most times, is a red flag for the crown. But this was a love that could not be denied.
The wedding was an event that the world at large watched. Celebrities from all parts came to see the event, and when the two said "I Do", the world went "awww".
Following the May 19th wedding, it was eventually found out that the newly minted Duchess of Sussex is pregnant with Prince Harry's child. Nothing like a good royal scandal!
Number 8: Doctor Who Is A Woman.
Before we talk about this infamous Dr., take a moment to like this video and join the Zero2Hero community by using the buttons below.
Alright, technically this happened in 2017 via the Doctor Who Christmas Special. However, on October 7th, 2018, the first official episode of Doctor Who starring British Actress Jodie Whittaker took place, and a new era of Doctor Who was born.
This change in character (quite literally) was a big thing for the series. For over 50 years, and 13 Doctors, Doctor Who has always been male. Every time, without fail. They teased that a woman could be the Doctor, but they never made it so, until Jodie Whittaker's casting once Peter Capaldi stepped down from the role.
From the moment she arrived in her debut episode, Jodie infused the role with a kindness and friendly quality that many of the other Doctor's just weren't able to convey. And while her casting is still controversial in some people's eyes, Doctor Who as a series saw a major ratings boost with the new season. And she's just getting started.
Number 7: Rock The Vote.
Since the election of Donald Trump in the United States, many have been vocal about the Presidency. But this past November, the people of the country (and even beyond it) urged others to vote. We've seen "Rock The Vote" movements in the past, but this was something else. This was less about encouragement, and more about making people understand that they actually had the power to change things.
Lead up to the mid-term elections for the US, people on Facebook, television, Twitter, and more rose up to encourage young voters, older voters, men, women, people of all races, and more to get out there and vote. It was getting so big that even people from industries that you wouldn't expect to care were getting involved. For example, many comic book writers went to Twitter to encourage their fans to vote, even offering free comics if they proved they did. And, even if it isn’t election season, I still encourage you to exercise your right to vote!
Number 6: Disney Buys 21st Century Fox.
Heading back to the world of entertainment, Disney made a colossal deal to make itself into an even bigger entertainment icon. For it bought out 21st Century Fox for an astounding $71.3 billion dollars.
Rumors of this happening started to surface back in 2017, but it wasn't until June 20th, 2018 that the deal was accepted by Fox.
