The 8-digit palindrome that hasn't happened for more than 900 years.
A palindrome is any sequence, phrase or word that reads the same backward as forward. And 02/02/2020 is considered a “universal palindrome” because it reads the same whether written as “Month/Day/Year" as the United States does, or “Day/Month/Year" as many other countries do.
The last universal palindrome occurred on 11/11/1111. The next one won't come until 12/12/2121.
Tuesday has nothing to do with 2. It originates from the oldest version of English from the middle ages, where week days were named after the gods, and the day was called Tiwesdag.
Up to around 1500, it's name was Tewesday - the day of Tiw. Tiw was the god for law and justice.
