Resplendent - Shining brightly; gleaming; brilliant in appearance.
The moon shown resplendently in the dark night.

Fact About the Day:
On July 1, 1979, the Sony Walkman went on sale for the first time for 30,000 Yen, or approximately 150 dollars. Sony's Masaru Ibuka, the chairman at the time, made a request for a device that he could easily transport during international flights. The first prototype required large, earmuff-type headphones and custom made batteries, but impressed the chairman so much that he pushed to have a marketable version of the device made. After four months, Sony engineers had a reliable product ready for the market. The original 30,000 devices were sold out in August, after the release, when Sony representatives started going up to people on the streets of Tokyo allowing them to listen to the quality of the sound on the portable Walkman.
