I assume you’re asking for first posts after momentous events in your (the poster’s) own life, not first posts after momentous events in the world like the first moon landing.

If so, I would think the first post after a momentous event would be _about that event_ and sooner than 10 days after!

Since late May, I’ve been posting descriptions of several events in my life that seem momentous to me, over in the General Aviation thread, generally the day afterward or even the same day.
