Newspaper article describing the Wright Brothers first powered, heavier-than air flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, U.S. (The Newark Daily Advocate, December 28, 1903) Some elements of the article have been resized for presentation. The original article, including two images, occupied a full single column. Last paragraphs of article are a bit hard to read in the original image. I think they are: Wilbur and Orville Wright are expert mechanics of Dayton, O., and have been experimenting with flying machines for the past four years. They are the sons of Bishop Wright of the United Breth- ren church. In building their flier the Wright brothers have followed to some extent the work of Lillienthal, Pilcher and Octave Chanut, but they have gone much further than these experts in using greater surfaces and especially in changing the position of the operator. By so arranging their machine that the operator lies in a horizontal position in- stead of standing upright the wind re- sistance is reduced from five square feet to one, and a full half horsepower is saved. Speaking of his invention, Mr. Or- ville Wright said that he and his broth- er, after twenty-four years of hard work, have succeeded in perfecting a flying machine. He stated that the most successful test was made recently at Kitty hawk. Mr. Wright declined to discuss the details of the construction of his ma- chine, as he has not as yet completed his tests, but stated that his flier was kept afloat in the air by its peculiar method of construction and also be the continuous operation of a gasoline mo- tor which turns a huge propeller. With- out the use of the motor he stated the machine would descend as soon as its momentum was exhausted. References are to: Alberto Santos-Dumont Lebaudy brothers Otto Lilienthal Percy Pilcher Octave Chanute

NASA was created from the National Advisory Committee on Aeronautics in 1958. This is a photo of the members of the advisory board of NACA in 1938. NACA was the governmental organization charged with the supervision and conduct of scientific laboratory research in aeronautics. Its laboratories located at Langley Field, Virginia, provide new knowledge underlying the continuous improvement in the performance, efficiency, and safety of American aircraft. At this meeting Dr. Joesph S. Ames, President Emeritus of Johns Hopkins University, was re-elected Chairman, and Dr. Vannevar Bush, President-elect of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, was elected Vice Chairman. Dr. Ames re-election as chairman was a recognition of his outstanding contributions to the science of aeronautics. He has been the leading scientific member of the Committee for over twenty-three years and chairman for eleven years. Under his visionary leadership the great laboratories of the N.A.C.A. at Langley Field have been developed. Left to Right: Hon. C. M. Hester, Administrator, Civil Aeronautics Authority; Captain S. M. Kraus, U.S.N.; Brig. General A. W. Robins, Chief, Material Division, Army Air Corps; Dr. L.J. Biggs, Director, National Bureau of Standards; Dr. E.P. Warner; Dr. Orville Wright; Dr. Joesph S. Ames, Chairman; Dr. C.G. Abbot, Secretary, Smithsonian Institution; J.F. Victory, Secretary; Rear Adm. A.B. Cook, U.S.N., Chief, Bureau Aeronautics Authority; Dr. Vannevar Bush; Dr. J.C.
