Short answer: Google 'exif'.

Slightly longer answer: EXIF is data about an image (eg, date, time, location, camera settings, did flash fire) that can be embedded into the file the image is stored in. All digital cameras (as far as I know) embed EXIF data, including the date the photo was taken, into the image file if using a compatible file type. JPEGs (which most cameras us by default) are EXIF compatible, and if you camera uses JPEGs the chances are that it is storing EXIF data in the files.
Many image viewing applications will allow you to view the EXIF data. Search Google for further information.
