time capsule

A time capsule is a container filled with items, documents, or information intended to be preserved for future generations. It is usually buried or sealed and opened at a later date, often many years later. The purpose is to provide insights into the culture, values, and life of the time it was created. Time capsules can include letters, photographs, technological devices, and everyday objects, serving as a snapshot of a specific moment in history. These capsules connect the past with the future, allowing people to explore and understand how life has evolved over time.
