The dream of flying like birds has always been one of the major aspirations of mankind since ages.Who doesn't want to fly high in the sky,watching the world from above.The hot air balloons,gliders,huge kites were some of the attempts of human beings to fly.Then came the dawn of airplanes when Wright brothers flew for the very first time on a heavier-than-air powered airplane in the year 1903.
This is what our modern western history tells us.Although all these records are unquestionable,when we come across ancient Indian literature,especially the famous epics of Ramayana and Mahabharata,we find instances of people using flying machines,famously called the "VIMANA" (You might now think is this some ancient alien propaganda? No please,this isn't).These were described as flying chariots used by Gods and demigods for travelling and in wars.
We will now study regarding various aspects of this Vimana ancient flying machines.
