[ENG/PT-BR] Historical Event: Father of Aviation and the First Flight.
If I could witness some historical event, choosing exactly the date and place, I would like to go back to October 23, 1906, to the city of Bagatelle, which is located in Paris. The big reason? It was the day that “14 BIS” made its first flight through the skies, or nearly so.
In case you don't know or don't remember, the "14 BIS" was the first heavier-than-air plane that managed to take off, using its own mechanics, therefore, it managed to travel 60 meters with a duration of 7 seconds in the air, something very quick, but which was a milestone for all of aviation from that moment on.
Source
The first plane to be able to take off by its own means, was created by a Brazilian (just like me), being built by Alberto Santos Dumont and in the image below we can see a little about its specifications.

Ok, but why did I choose this historic event?
Because of its creator Alberto Santos Dumont and because of the historical and evolutionary milestone that this event was. It is something that is remembered even today and this memory will probably be eternal, of how he contributed to humanity's development.

Known as the father of aviation, he was not exclusively related to planes and the skies, as we can see in this excerpt below:
He was the first to create air navigation – a much broader concept, which consists of driving an aircraft, instead of being driven erratically by it. The first to fly with an explosion-powered engine; the first to have a certified flight; the inventor of the opposed-cylinder engine (still used today); the first to manufacture an airplane in series; the inventor of the wristwatch; the forerunner of the free patent; the first to bring an oil-powered automobile to Brazil.

A person totally focused on evolution and innovation, I believe he was one of the greatest and most recognized Brazilians the world has ever known, so much so that he is still remembered for that today, in history books, museums or anywhere else, there is always a mention of his genius and unbelievable accomplishments.
Surely another lesson we could learn is something that is already routine: never give up on his dreams or goals. I wonder how many times he was called crazy, or how he was told he would fail every time he tried to take off or create any of his inventions.
It's a good thing he didn't listen to these people and went ahead with all his intellect to create so many revolutionary things.

Now, let's stop to think: if you imagine that in 1906 modern aviation began to take its first steps, today we have rockets and satellites in space, we have images of various stars, planets, from the void of space to black holes. We have robots walking around on Mars, taking pictures and maybe all of this started on that October 23, 1906.
Human evolution in this regard was incredible and we never stopped trying to improve our inventions to bring comfort and save time with the displacement of people or cargo between cities, or even across continents.
So being there would be something like that for me, kind of magical, surreal, exciting and inspiring, like: get your ideas off paper, go after what you believe in and that will improve the world. Being an inventor is something incredible, being able to create innovations that will help everyone from a given moment into the future, being eternalized in history, all of this just shows the strength of a dream being fulfilled.
And well, crazy as I am, I would love to get to Santos Dumont and ask if I could take a ride in his 14 BIS, it would certainly be a unique and fun experience. 😂
I wrote this text with the help of some information from the following sites:
Se eu pudesse ser testemunha de algum evento histórico, escolhendo exatamente a data e o lugar, eu gostaria de voltar para o dia 23 de outubro de 1906, para a cidade de Bagatelle, que fica em Paris. O grande motivo? Foi o dia em que o “14 BIS” realizou o seu primeiro voo pelos céus, ou quase isso.
Caso você ainda não saiba ou não lembre, o “14 BIS” foi o primeiro avião mais pesado que o ar que conseguiu decolar, utilizando de suas próprias mecânicas, sendo assim, ele conseguiu percorrer 60 metros com uma duração de 7 segundos no ar, algo bem rápido, mas que foi um marco para toda a aviação a partir daquele momento em diante.
Fonte
O primeiro avião a conseguir decolar por seus próprios meios, foi criado por um brasileiro (assim como eu), sendo construído por Alberto Santos Dumont e na imagem abaixo podemos ver um pouco sobre as suas especificações.
Fonte
Ok, mas porque escolhi este evento histórico?
Por conta de seu criador Alberto Santos Dumont e devido ao marco histórico e evolucionário que foi esse evento. É algo que é lembrado até hoje e provavelmente será eterno essa lembrança, de como ele contribuiu para a humanidade se desenvolver.
Fonte
Conhecido como o pai da aviação, ele não ficou exclusivamente relacionado apenas com aviões e os céus, como podemos observar neste trecho abaixo:
Ele foi o primeiro a criar a navegação área – um conceito muito mais amplo, que consiste em conduzir uma aeronave, em vez de ser conduzido erraticamente por ela. O primeiro a voar com motor movido a explosão; o primeiro a ter um voo homologado; o inventor do motor de cilindros opostos (até hoje usados); o primeiro a fabricar um avião em série; o inventor do relógio de pulso; o precursor da patente livre; o primeiro a trazer ao Brasil um automóvel movido a petróleo.
Fonte
Uma pessoa totalmente voltada para a evolução e inovação, acredito que ele tenha sido um dos maiores e mais reconhecidos brasileiros que o mundo já conheceu, tanto, que por isso até hoje é lembrado, nos livros de histórias, em museus ou em qualquer outro lugar, sempre existe uma menção a sua genialidade e a seus feitos inacreditáveis.
Com certeza outra lição que poderíamos tirar é algo que já é até rotineiro: nunca desista dos seus sonhos ou objetivos. Fico imaginando quantas vezes ele foi chamado de maluco, ou como falavam que ele iria fracassar toda vez que tentasse decolar ou criar qualquer uma de suas invenções.
Ainda bem que ele não deu ouvidos para essas pessoas e seguiu em frente com todo o seu intelecto para criar tantas coisas revolucionarias.
Fonte
Agora, paremos para pensar: se imaginar que em 1906 a aviação moderna começava a dar seus primeiros passos, hoje estamos com foguetes e satélites pelo espaço, temos imagens de vários estrelas, planetas, do vazio do espaço aos buracos negros. Temos robôs passeando por marte, tirando fotos e talvez tudo isso tenha se iniciado naquele dia 23 de outubro de 1906.
A evolução humana nesse quesito foi incrível e nunca paramos de buscar melhorar nossas invenções para trazer conforto e ganho de tempo com o deslocamento de pessoas ou cargas entre cidades, ou até mesmo pelos continentes.
Então estar lá seria algo assim para mim, meio que mágico, surreal, emocionante e inspirador, do tipo: tire suas ideias do papel, corre atrás daquilo que você acredita e que melhorará o mundo. Ser um inventor é algo incrível, poder criar novidades que irão auxiliar a todos a partir do dado momento para o futuro, ser eternizado na história, tudo isso só mostra a força de um sonho sendo realizado.
E bem, maluco do jeito que sou, adoraria chegar no Santos Dumont e perguntar se eu poderia dar uma voltinha no seu 14 BIS, com certeza seria uma experiência única e divertida. 😂

Hehehe. Riding with Santos Dumont would also have had your name captured in history, well that would have been nice but it's not too late, you can make your own discoveries and inventions too Thanks to God there are foundations already laid down by many in different fields for us to build upon. Like the legend, follow your dreams and don't allow the opinions of men take you off track.
It would have been incredible to have flown with him haha, but what you said is the absolute truth, we must chase our dreams without fear and do our best with great determination to achieve our life's goals! Thanks for the comment!
Big thanks to Alberto Santos Dumont a genuine pioneer of aviation. His bold step lays the bedrock for today's inventions we all enjoys.
This is a great tribute to a legendary man.
Thank you for sharing with us
I am very happy that you liked my post, Santos Dumont was an incredible person and is still present today with his inventions and discoveries! Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for sharing
I'm glad you enjoyed it and learned something, that's the best thing about sharing information on hive! Thanks for the comment!
wow you seem very passionate about aviation. by any chance are you a pilot or dreamed of being one O.O. anyways this was an interesting event to choose and came with new historical knowledge probably for most people. Thanks for sharing!
Well, I never really imagined being a pilot, but it must feel good, traveling through the clouds in the skies. I've always liked aircraft, despite not taking this branch so deeply, but I believe I was also more interested in seeing how it works, models and news that may be coming.
I'm glad you liked my post and thank you very much for your comment! Thanks!
hey i guess i wasnt correct with my prediction :o but u did have passion for aircraft or aviation of some sort so ig uess i was right there.
You're welcome man! you have a good weekend
Hehe. The experience of the flight would certainly be unique and exciting.
I didn’t know anything about aviation history. The post was informative for me not only with regard to aviation history but also about Santos Dumont. An incredible man, indeed.
Many of the inventions we take advantage of today were worked on by the people who were called crazy.
Not giving up on the Dreems is the key. The Dreems with open eyes make us do what otherwise was impossible.
Nice post 👍
Hello, I am very happy that you liked the post and that you have brought some new knowledge, it is always good to learn new things! Really, the inventions we have today were once a dream of their inventors and it's a good thing they didn't listen to negative thoughts and words.
I can say that I feel this in part, because when I talk about the hive to other people, they call me crazy or say that it will never work, but I don't listen haha, it's already working and I'm very happy!
Thanks for the comment, I hope you come back more often! A big hug!

(no space) to get help on Hive. InfoI wrote about the Wright brothers... They were able to make the first powered successful airplane. These guys had a lot in them to stomach. They knew what they want and went all in.
I didn't know about the Wright brothers until I made this post, so some members told me that they were also pioneers in inventions and creations for humanity and that's really cool, the important thing is that we can always evolve and improve everything we have to disposition.
