Orville piloted the first flight that lasted just twelve seconds. On the fourth and final flight of the day, Wilbur traveled 852 feet, remaining airborne for 57 seconds. That morning the brothers became the first people to demonstrate sustained flight of a heavier-than-air machine under the complete control of the pilot. They had built the 1903 Flyer in sections in the back room of their Dayton, Ohio, bicycle shop.

Extractions: With the closing of the Millennium, dating the past is particularly in our minds. Anthropologists and especially archaeologists invest great efforts in dating a particular skeleton, structure, or event. Last week's newspapers, for instance, reported a confirmation of a great flood which occurred thousands of years ago and which might be identified with the Biblical Deluge: The level of the Black Sea rose, in a few years, by 170 meters! This catastrophic event resulted from a rise in the level of the world's oceans , which in turn arose from the melting of the enormous glaciers which covered the northern continents during the last great Ice Age. Until that point, the Black Sea had been cut off, but now seawater broke through into the Black Sea at the Straits of Bosporus (Turkey) and filled it up to the level of the world's oceans. The waterfall at its peak must have been quite a sight, far exceeding Niagara in volume! (An even greater stream had occurred at Gibraltar a few thousand years earlier when the Atlantic Ocean broke through into the Mediterranean Sea.)

Libby has performed a wide range of scientific advisory and technical consultant work with industrial firms associated with the Institute for Nuclear Studies, as well as with defense departments, scientific organizations and universities. Libby is a physical chemist and a specialist in radiochemistry particularly hot atom chemistry, tracer techniques, and isotope tracer work. He became well-known at Chicago University for his work on natural carbon-14 and its use in dating archaeological artifacts, and natural tritium, and its use in hydrology and geophysics. He was awarded the Nobel Prize In chemistry 1960 "for his method to use carbon-14 for age determination in archaeology, geology and geophysics, and other branches of science.
