Milestones:Birthplace of the Internet, 1969

A black commemorative plaque with gold frame, inscribed with gold letters. It reads:

"At 10:30 p.m., 29 October 1969, the first ARPANET message was sent from this UCLA site to the Stanford Research Institute. Based on packet switching and dynamic resource allocation, the sharing of information digitally from this first node of ARPANET launched the Internet revolution."
