The Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur, made the first powered flight with their aircraft, the Wright Flyer, on December 17, 1903. This historic flight took place near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, and lasted 12 seconds, covering a distance of 120 feet. This event marked the beginning of the era of powered flight and paved the way for the development of modern aviation.
