History of aviation
Brief History of Aviation
The desire to fly has been present in humankind since ancient times. As early as BC, the Chinese invented the kite, developing techniques to make it fly in the air and recording human attempts of flying with them.
Later, around BC, a scholar of ancient Greece, Archites of Taranto, built a wooden artifact which he named &#;Peristera&#; (dove, in Greek). The bird-shaped apparatus, tied to ropes that allowed a controlled flight, was propelled by an air blast.
However, the credit for the first human flight, rests on the Andalusian Berber Abbas Ibn Firnas, born in Ronda (Malaga, Spain), who is said to have jumped from a high place in Cordoba in with wooden wings covered with silk and feathers. Apparently, he flew for about 10 seconds before falling and breaking both legs. This flight served as an inspiration to Elmer de Malmesbury, a Benedictine monk who, a century later (about ) traveled more than meters in the air on a similar apparatus. Both missed the fact that for a successful landing a bird-like tail was needed.

Stratonautical space suit
Pressurized suit
The stratonautical space suit (Spanish: escafandra estratonáutica)[1] was a pressurised suit designed by Colonel Emilio Herrera in [2] to be worn during a stratospheric flight using an open basket balloon scheduled for the following year. It is considered one of the antecedents of the space suit.

Herrera, a supporter of the Republican side, fled to France in , where he died in exile in The balloon, made of vulcanized silk, was cut and used to make raincoats for the troops. The suit was in the Cuatro Vientos airbase, fell to the Nationalist side and disappeared.[3] It would have been the first fully pressurized functional suit in history, although it was never worn in real conditions.
The suit had a woolen layer[3] and a hermetic cover on the inside (tested in the bathroom of Herrera's apartment in Seville), covered with an articulated metal frame with accordion-like folds. It had articulated parts for the shoulders, hips, elbows, knees, and fingers. The mobility of the suit was tested at the Cuatro Vientos experimental station, and according to Herrera it was "satisfactory". The suit was supplied with pure oxyge
