(Maybe we should have an Official Robert Cornelius Aging Timeline?)

first human face dude is kinda hot

this is a little uncool to copy oobject's entire list rather than linking to them

I'm missing some:
The first photograph ever?
The first colored photograph?

lol! figures the first picture of a human face was a self-portrait. we're so vain! :P

Pardon my nerditry, but The Blue Marble isn't the first photo of Earth from outer space. It isn't even the first to be taken from out of Earth orbit, or by an Apollo mission. I'd claim Earthrise might be the first, taken by the crew of Apollo 8, but there may have been an even earlier image too. Also, that image of a molecule (pentacene) isn't technically a photograph. It was made using an Atomic Force Microscope, sort of like a record player needle on steroids, with the deflections of the needle measured by a laser, light was not directly involved in making the image. It's still amazing, though.

That skeleton hand must have BLOWN THEIR MINDS back then… imagine never seeing bones except in anatomical drawings (unless you're a grave-robber) and then seeing your very own fleshless hand… spooky. These are all supercool for different reasons.

for Cornelius, I feel like the hotness definitely is the hair. talk about cyclical trends with the messy hair look.

People in 1838 or 1839 were built like brick houses.

Yes, Robert Cornelius is easily the hottest photographer I've seen.

Robert Cornelius is super mega foxy awesome hot.

Is it just me, or is Robert Cornelius ultra hot? First time machine trip soon, please?
