This tribute to aviation and space exploration by the State of Ohio is justified if we take into account that astronauts Neil Armstrong, passenger on the first space mission to land on the Moon, and John Glenn, astronaut and national hero, were born in Ohio .
Another very important son of the State was Orville Wright, co-inventor of the first manned and powered airplane in history, the Flyer III, built and tested in 1905 in Ohio.
There is a longstanding dispute between the States of North Carolina and Ohio over where the first flight of the Wright brothers' prototypes actually took place, the State of North Carolina also chose a similar theme to represent their State in the series of "State Quarters", titled "First Flight".
