TL;DR Summary

Deep Sea Vision, an ocean exploration company, has captured sonar images of what appears to be Amelia Earhart's long-lost aircraft at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, near Howland Island where she and her navigator, Fred Noonan, were supposed to refuel but never arrived during their 1937 circumnavigation attempt. The discovery, made possible by high-tech unmanned underwater drones, has reignited interest in the decades-old mystery of Earhart's disappearance, with the team planning to investigate the area further this year.
