The obvious conclusion is that 1969 never existed.

This reminds me that we buried a time capsule in elementary school around 30 years ago and I’m fairly certain it has never been dug up and now I wonder if they even had plans for making that happen or if anyone working there currently even remembers it.

It’s a glitch in the program. The contents of that safe are inside a rock somewhere outside the instance of the town hall.

I was about to suggest that writing the combination on the back of the safe may not have been the most secure strategy in the world, but I’ve had my passwords Post-It Noted to my monitor for years, and everything’s fine here.

Finally, hard proof that the Apollo 11 mission was staged.

Sadly, any time capsule buried in this era would be similarly empty.

Q: What happens now?
A: Well now, uh, Lancelot, Galahad, and I, wait until nightfall, and then leap out of the time capsule, taking the future by surprise.
Q: Who leaps out?

Time capsule from 1969 opened and (drumroll) nothing was inside!
I disagree. Inside was air from 1969! Get a whiff of that incense. And is that burnt banana skin I smell?

Of course 1969 existed. That was the year Candle Cove aired on TV.
