A sonar image initially believed to show Amelia Earhart's plane was identified as a natural rock formation by Deep Sea Vision, a marine robotics firm. The image, taken near Howland Island, sparked excitement earlier this year but was later confirmed not to be Earhart's Lockheed 10-E Electra. Despite the setback, the company plans to continue searching for Earhart's crash site.

Deep Sea Vision, an ocean exploration company, claims to have discovered an airplane-shaped object 16,000 feet beneath the Pacific Ocean's surface, potentially belonging to Amelia Earhart's lost plane. The company encountered technical issues with the photographic evidence during their $11 million expedition, but managed to retrieve the data, revealing a hazy image resembling a plane. The team is planning to return to the site for solid confirmation, with the belief that the wreckage fits Earhart's missing craft.

A potential breakthrough in the 87-year-old mystery surrounding Amelia Earhart’s disappearance emerged as sonar images of a plane-shaped mass, believed to be her Lockheed 10-E Electra, were released by adventurers Tony and Lloyd Romeo. The images, nearly lost due to hard drive issues during their $11 million Pacific Ocean expedition, may confirm a 14-year-old "Date Line" theory about Earhart's ill-fated flight. The theory suggests that navigator Fred Noonan's miscalculation sent them off course, leading to their disappearance in 1937. A follow-up expedition is planned to retrieve better sonar images and confirm the findings, potentially resolving the decades-long mystery.

A sonar image captured by Deep Sea Visions in the Pacific Ocean has reignited interest in the mystery of Amelia Earhart's disappearance, potentially showing her plane. The next step is to visually confirm the object and potentially raise the aircraft, which could be complicated due to its condition and international standards for underwater archaeology. Raising the plane and placing it in a museum would likely cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and legal issues regarding ownership and salvage claims may arise. The Deep Sea Vision team hopes to have an announcement before the end of the year.
