At 10:35 a.m., on December 17, 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright made history in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, when they made the first powered, controlled flight of a heavier-than-air flying machine. From that brief 12 second flight, started a revolution for the world. From journeys that would have taken Months/weeks to now under a day to a few hours, from around the earth to space itself. Come join an informal discussion of the effect of the Wright Brothers invention on every aspect of modern life around the world.
