Possible Discovery of Amelia Earhart's Long-Lost Plane in the Pacific

Former U.S. Air Force intelligence officer Tony Romeo believes he has found the wreckage of Amelia Earhart's plane, which disappeared in 1937, on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean using sonar data from a deep-sea drone. The plane, which lies over 5,000 meters beneath the surface, is believed to match the size and characteristics of Earhart's Lockheed Model 10-E Electra. Romeo plans to launch a mission to confirm and potentially raise the wreckage, offering the possibility of bringing closure to the decades-old mystery.
