Every innovation captivated the public: from the days when crowds gathered in squares to watch daredevils leap from towers with wings strapped to them, to millions watching the moon landing. Balloon launches in the 18th century were no less captivating than the air shows of the early 20th century. Modern jet parades and spacecraft launches still captivate the imagination. The history of flight is not only a story of technical development and innovative engineering solutions, but also a history of colossal cultural and social change. Flight has influenced the visual arts, the development of advertising, and, to some extent, even morality and philosophy.
