On this day December 17 in 1903, two brothers that owned a bicycle shop in Ohio -Orville and Wilbur Wright - changed the direction and history of mankind.
Near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, the brothers made the first successful flight in history of a self-propelled, heavier-than-air aircraft. Orville piloted the gasoline-powered, propeller-driven biplane, which stayed aloft for 12 seconds and covered 120 feet on its inaugural flight.
