Transcendentalism was a philosophical movement that held its ground in America for a good half a century. As the believers of this movement were against organised religion and believed that knowledge can be gained with the power of contemplating about the spirit and soul. The transcendentalists were against all kinds of social evils and unjust attitudes that prevailed in the American society at that time. Similarly the problem of slavery and woman emancipation for example greatly irked them. Because transcendentalism found its place only in literature and became a literary movement, the followers of this movement could not really solve the problems but they did voice them in their work, hoping it will open people's eyes.

Key idea 1 introduces the main idea of travel and states that land and water travel were taken care of in the nineteenth century, leaving air travel by implication, which is stated in the next idea. It is further elaborated in detail in the third point which explains the aspect of the problem that needed to be solved. The fourth idea introduces Wilbur and Orville and states their findings on the existence of tangential force, elaborating the former's estimates in the fifth and sixth key points.
