The Wright Brothers' first successful powered flight took place in which year?

The first successful powered flight by the Wright Brothers took place in 1903, marking a significant milestone in aviation history. On December 17, 1903, Orville and Wilbur Wright achieved the first controlled, powered flight with their aircraft, the Wright Flyer, in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. This flight lasted 12 seconds and covered a distance of 120 feet, demonstrating the feasibility of powered flight. This event laid the foundation for subsequent developments in aviation and is celebrated as a turning point in the field. The other years do not correspond to this pivotal achievement; 1900 is before their initial powered experiments, 1905 marks later developments with more advanced flights, and 1907 was after they had already established their place in aviation history.
