On December 17, 1903, the Wright brothers had their first flight. Orville Wright piloted the Wright Flyer for 12 seconds, traveling a total of 120 feet, making it the first sustained, powered, and controlled flight of a heavier-than-air aircraft. You’ve probably seen the Wright Flyer replica on display in the Aviation wing, but did you know that SMO Collections cares for other artifacts as a Smithsonian Affiliate?! #CapCut #collections #smithsonian #museumtok #oklahomacity | Science Museum Oklah
