The Story in the Margin

At 10:35 on the morning of 17 December 1903, on the windswept dunes of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, Orville Wright lifted the Wright Flyer into the air for twelve seconds — the first powered, controlled flight in history. A bystander pressed the shutter at the perfect instant, catching Wilbur running alongside as human beings finally left the ground.
