Another fun fact: Apollo 11 (first humans on the moon) brought with them a piece of the original Wright Flyer. So that scrap of wood was both a part of the first powered flight and the first landing of humans on another world.
The piece of wood is currently on display at the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum, right next to the rest of the Wright Flyer.
