Please read the Admissions Policy prior to visiting the Waterpark to avoid disappointm ent on arrival IMPORTANT INFORMATION According to time capsule historian William Jarvis, most intentional time capsules usually do not provide much useful historical information: they are typically filled with "useless junk", new and pristine in condition, that tells little about the people of the time. [20] Many time capsules today contain only artifacts of limited value to future historians. Historians suggest that items which describe the daily lives of the people who created them, such as personal notes, pictures, videos and documents, would greatly increase the value of the time capsule to future historians.

Hallan una "cápsula del tiempo" oculta en una talla del siglo XVIII". abc. November 27, 2017 . Retrieved April 14, 2019. If time capsules have a museum-like goal of preserving the culture of a particular time and place for study, they fulfill this goal very poorly in that they, by definition, are kept sealed for a particular length of time. Subsequent generations between the launch date and the target date will have no direct access to the artifacts and therefore these generations are prevented from learning from the contents directly. Therefore, time capsules can be seen, in respect to their usefulness to historians, as dormant museums, their releases timed for some date so far in the future that the building in question is no longer intact.

A time capsule from the era of the American Revolution, dating to 1795 and credited to Samuel Adams and Paul Revere, was temporarily removed in 2014 from the cornerstone of the Massachusetts State House in Boston. [8] It had been previously opened in 1855, and some new items had been added before it was reinstalled. [8] It was ceremonially reopened in January 2015 at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, with specific restrictions on media coverage, to preserve the fragile artifacts. [9] The contents were displayed there briefly, and then reinstalled in their original location. [8] [10] It is the oldest known time capsule in the United States.It is widely debated when time capsules were first used, but the concept is fairly simple, and the idea and first use of time capsules could be much older than is currently documented. [2] The term "time capsule" appears to be a relatively recent coinage dating from 1938. [3] In Poland a time capsule dating to 1726 has been found. [4] There is documentation of at least three physical time capsules at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, Massachusetts, as well as a "virtual" or digital time capsule. [5]
