While the idea is great, this web page is pretty low effort. Check the facts for 1950 - they are the same as for the 90's.

Yeah, you pick the 1940's and gives the human genome one. I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure they weren't teaching that in high school considering wasn't even a word until 1920

It's also weak on the sources. Like, a Vox article, really?

Vox is kind of like Wikipedia in the sense that you need to follow-up on their sources.
