Okay after some searching I found A LOT!!! Here are just a few.
March 13th dates in History
1781 Uranus Discovered By William Herschel.
1927: The British army ceases using the lance as an official weapon
1930: Pluto discovered
1938: **** Germany invade Austria, making it a German Reich province
This one is the neatest, considering that this is a Ford truck forum and I LOVE Fords. Actually it's a news article.

Ford accelerates nanotechnology work into lightweight metals
Abstract:
Ford Motor Company announced recently that it is using one of the most advanced laboratory devices in North America to accelerate its nanotechnology research into lighter-weight metals and plastics with greater strength, ultimately helping improve the safety and fuel economy of Ford cars and trucks.
The device, called the Local Electrode Atom Probe (LEAP), is housed at Northwestern University and is now one of only four such tools in North America. This new laboratory tool enables Ford to cut in half the amount of time it takes to analyze the molecular makeup of metals and plastics and determine ways to tailor the material to make lighter-weight and more durable parts.
