"Ocean Exploration Company Uncovers Possible Proof of Amelia Earhart's Wrecked Plane"

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.

"Virginia Beach Police Investigate Possible Connection Between Missing Person and Car Submerged Off Fishing Pier"

A car drove off a pier in Virginia Beach and submerged in the water, but rough conditions have hindered recovery efforts, with sonar technology confirming the vehicle's location on the ocean floor. Attempts to retrieve the car have been unsuccessful due to dangerous water conditions, and authorities are hesitant to remove any potential bodies inside due to the risk of losing evidence. The police department is working with a private company to form a new plan for the recovery operation, and the case has similarities to a missing person report, although it's currently unconfirmed if the missing person is associated with the submerged vehicle.

"Explorers Claim Discovery of Amelia Earhart's Lost Plane in Pacific"

Explorer Tony Romeo believes he has found the long-lost plane of Amelia Earhart using sonar technology in the Pacific Ocean, 100 miles from Howland Island. The blurry image captured by an underwater drone resembles Earhart's twin engine Lockheed 10-E Electra, and Romeo plans to return to the site with better equipment for confirmation. The expedition, which requires expensive gear, used an underwater drone to scan 5,200 square miles of ocean floor, and the suspected plane was found resting 5,000 meters underwater.
