Orville and Wilbur Wright, commonly refered to as the Wright brothers, had a dream of flying, and dedicated their lives to create a "flying machine". After countless failed attempts, they made their first successful airplane in December 1903. Their plane flew at an altitude of 10 feet, traveled 120 feet, and landed 12 seconds after takeoff. Their invention is known today as the first airplane vehicle. The "Kitty Hawk" as the brother's called it, was the starting point for engine powered airplanes and gave birth to not only a new passage for discovery, but for transportation, entertainment and warfare
