Creates a `Date` object from a Unix timestamp.
- Convert the timestamp to milliseconds by multiplying with `1000`.
- Use the `Date` constructor to create a new `Date` object.
```js
const fromTimestamp = timestamp => new Date(timestamp * 1000);
```
```js
fromTimestamp(1602162242); // 2020-10-08T13:04:02.000Z
```
