In 1901,the citizens of Colorado Springs(科罗拉多泉市) in the USA decided to collect everyday items and to seal them in a steel box.The box was marked “To be opened after midnight,December 31st,AD 2000”,and was stored in the Colorado College Library.
  One hundred years later,on the appointed day,300 people gathered to watch the opening of the box.Many in the crowd were in very good condition.There were newspapers,photographs,diaries,name cards,family trees,books and dozens of letters,including one written by Theodore Roosevelt(西奥多·罗斯福,美国第26任总统),who became the President of the USA later that year.One of Roosevelt‘s friends lived in Colorado Springs at that time.
  Many of the letters were addressed to their descendants.They describe the hopes that the people of 1901 had for the people of the next century.At that time,Colorado Springs had just a few thousand residents.Now nearly half a million people live there.
  Colorado College Library has scanned the materials and put them on a website.Cecil Muller,whose grandfather had placed a collection of postcards in the box,said that the time capsule was a great treasure.“This is a wonderful educational resource.We can learn so much about our history,” he said.“I never knew my grandfather,but now I feel close to him.”
  In April 2001,a committee filled the time capsule with items from modern Colorado Springs and resealed it for another hundred years.

1901年,美国科罗拉多泉市的市民决定将每天的物品收集起来,将此密封在一个铁盒子中,并写上“ 公元2000年12月31日午夜后打开”的文字,将铁盒子保存在科罗拉多大学图书馆.
100年后,在约定的日期,300多人聚集在一起见证了盒子的开启.盒子内的许多东西保存完好,有报纸、照片、日记、名片、族谱、书籍和几达信件,也包括西奥多•罗斯福写的一封信,这一年后期他成为了美国总统.罗斯福的一个朋友当时住在科罗拉多泉市.
许多信件都是写给他们子孙后代的,内容上1901年时的人写给下一代人的希望,哪个时候科罗拉多泉市仅有几万居民,现在接近50万了.
科罗拉多大学图书馆工作人员将这些物品进行扫描,将其放在网上.塞西尔.马勒,他祖父在盒子中放置了收集的明信片,说,时间空间是一笔巨大的财富.他说:“ 这是一个非常好的教育资源,从中了解更多地我们的历史,我从来不知道我的祖父,但现在我感到离他很近”.
在2001年的4月份,来自现代科罗拉多泉市负责填满时间空间的委托人收集了一些物品,并将其再次密封保存,等待下一个百年后再打开.
