There is a small piece of the fabric from the wing of the airplane that flew at Kitty Hawk by the Wright brothers. Pretty cool idea to bring that to Mars if you ask me.

The whole thing is amazing. Another area where Trump had no intention of reducing our commitment.

We humans may be crawling our way to the stars, but despite the bidets we are moving forward.

Although this is NASA, Heinlein was right in the future of space belongs the private sector.

You might be interested to know that the last history book I taught Jr. High kids from, maybe 10 years ago, didn’t have the Wright Brothers in the glossary. It did include a photo of the Flyer, but didn’t really tell the Wrights’ story nor give them credit for the first airplane.

Happily, the history book did include the woman who started the first kindergarten class in Los Angeles.
