00:00Part of this summer's huge America 250th celebration will include the burial of a time
00:06capsule in Philadelphia with instructions not to open it again for another 250 years until the year
00:132276. The cylindrical three-layer pod was designed to keep artifacts safe for the long haul. Those
00:20artifacts so far include a coin used in an NFL playoff game coin toss, items from the 2026 Rose
00:27Parade, and a handheld American flag. Other items will be finalized in the coming months representing
00:33all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and the five major inhabited U.S. territories. Each of
00:39them will have a three-foot-by-two-foot box to fill in the large weatherproof capsule. Then on July
00:464th,
00:46the 250th birthday itself, the cylinder will be buried on the grounds of Independence Hall,
00:52where the Declaration of Independence was signed on that day 250 years ago.
