TIL that in 1903 the New York Times predicted that building a flying machine would be possible in 1-10 Million years.

via ift.tt

To understand how ridiculous this is, the first successful powered airplane flew this same year, 1903

“In the last hundred years we went from horse drawn carriages to trains and automobiles, but flying machines? Millions of years ahead of us.”
