"The Wright Brothers & the Invention of the Aerial Age" explores who Wilbur and Orville Wright were, what they achieved and how they did it, and and how the world first reacted to their revolutionary invention. At the center of the story and the heart of the gallery is the 1903 Wright Flyer, one of the most iconic artifacts in the Smithsonian’s collection. Now on view at the Museum in DC. | National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution
