Astronauts aboard the International Space Station share a kindred spirit of flight accomplishments and commemorated the centennial celebration (http://www.firstflightcentennial.org/) with this image of Kitty Hawk and the Wright Brothers National Memorial.Kitty Hawk is located on North Carolina’s Outer Banks. The Wrights used the Outer Banks’ prevailing winds and the altitude gained by climbing a 90-foot hill (Kill Devil Hill) to successfully demonstrate powered flight. The large circle on the image is a road ringing Kill Devil Hill, now part of the Wright Brothers National Memorial. A large granite monument sits on top of the hill. Both the Wright Brothers National Memorial and Dayton, Ohio (hometown of the Wright Brothers) will host celebrations of the Wright Brothers’ achievement throughout the year. Download Packaged File.
