Today is Towel Day! Salute the legacy of 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' author Douglas Adams
Today, May 25, is officially known as Towel Day.
This day is meant to honor the beloved author of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," Douglas Adams, whose writings have inspired multitudes of writers, painters, scientists, filmmakers, astronomers, artists, engineers, space station astronauts and kindred souls of all stripes. It's a special day for fans and friends to gather and celebrate Adams and the sublime insanity of "The Hitchhiker's Guide."
To commemorate Adams on Towel Day, true fans of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" will tote their towels around town and country, sharing personal photos with their honorary towels on social media using the hashtag #TowelDay, posting iconic quotes, re-reading the books, raising a pint while reciting favorite lines, attending lectures, or rewatching the BBC series or 2005 feature film.
Fans of Douglas Adams' "A Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" books are a fiercely loyal and exceptionally quirky bunch of intellects that revel in any chance to pay tribute to the esoteric humor and imaginative sci-fi worlds created by Adams starting way back in 1979 with the publishing of that first seminal novel.
SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk said a towel and a copy of the book was aboard the Tesla Roadster that was sent into orbit around the sun aboard the company's first flight test of its Falcon Heavy rocket. SpaceX also previous said it plans to name the first of its many Mars-colonizing ships after "Heart of Gold," a spaceship in "The Hitchhiker's Guide."
Towel Day has been celebrated every year since May 25, 2001, two weeks after Adams sadly passed away of a heart attack at the age of 49 on May 11, 2001.
Adams came into life on March 11, 1952, in Cambridge, England to eventually become a world-renowned author most commonly associated with penning "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" series of humorous sci-fi books, which were adapted from his original 1978 radio plays. The prolific writer also did work for the BBC, and classic TV series like "Monty Python" and "Doctor Who."
The symbolic towel that acolytes of the author proudly display or carry around today goes back to the official "The Hitchhiker's Guide," which regards the simple utilitarian item as "just about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can carry."
The handy galactic encyclopedia also considers the sound logic of non-hitchhikers for their sensible conclusions that "any man who can hitch the length and breadth of the galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through, and still knows where his towel is, is clearly a man to be reckoned with."
