How we source these
Public holidays are taken from official government sources for each country and cover national holidays only. The United States, Canada and Australia all have significant state and provincial holidays that are not shown, and India’s system of state, optional and restricted holidays means only three days are observed nationwide. Where a government has not yet published a year, we say so rather than guess. Always check the official source for the country concerned rather than relying on this alone.
February 1st through history
Columbia lost, and a dictionary begun
On February 1st 2003 the space shuttle Columbia broke apart over Texas during re-entry, sixteen minutes before it was due to land in Florida. All seven crew were lost. The cause was traced to a piece of insulating foam that had struck the leading edge of the left wing at launch, sixteen days earlier. The shuttle fleet did not fly again for two and a half years.
The first fascicle of what became the Oxford English Dictionary was published on February 1st 1884: 352 pages, covering A to Ant, under the title A New English Dictionary on Historical Principles. The editors had estimated the whole work would take about ten years. The last of the 125 parts appeared in 1928, forty-four years later.
Explorer 1, the first American satellite, reached orbit late on January 31st 1958 in Florida, which was already February 1st by Greenwich time. Its single instrument, a Geiger counter supplied by James Van Allen, kept saturating; the radiation belts that explain why now carry his name.
Clark Gable, the film actor best remembered as Rhett Butler in Gone with the Wind, was born in Cadiz, Ohio, on February 1st 1901; Harry Styles, the singer who first found fame in One Direction, was born in Redditch, ninety-three years later. Between them they have supplied leading men to two very different centuries.
Born on February 1st: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Clark Gable and Harry Styles — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Aquarius — an Air sign ruled by Saturn (traditional) / Uranus (modern), symbolised by the Water-Bearer.
Birthstone
Amethyst for February.
Birth flower
Violet (primary), also Primrose — most commonly cited sources agree on violet as the main February flower.
None of this is settled fact in the way the history above is — zodiac dates, birthstones and birth flowers are conventions rather than laws, and different sources hedge them slightly differently. The birthstone is the most standardised of the three (set by the trade in 1912 and revised since); the birth flower is the least, resting on Victorian tradition rather than any governing body.

A small, themed starting point rather than a shopping list — amethyst for the stone, Aquarius for the sign, and the sky itself on the day.
