Divers Uncover Object That Could Solve A Huge Historical Disappearance

The question and many contrasting theories of Amelia Earhart's disappearance has long bewildered the world. But when a group of amateur historians recently dove into the ocean, they found previously unseen clues that might have moved us closer to solving the decades-old puzzle once and for all.

Earhart's Aim

Renowned aviation pioneer and author Amelia Earhart attempted to circumnavigate the globe via airplane. Unfortunately, on her second attempt, she vanished somewhere over the Pacific in July of 1937, and her fate remained a mystery.

Conspiracies Everywhere

Earhart, who was the first female pilot to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean, has been the subject of conspiracy theories for decades, as her near evaporation felt more like sci-fi than fact. Without answers, people had no other choice but to conspire and imagine.

Range of Possibilities

Plane Fragments

These wild conspiracy theories may soon die, as a shocking discovery off the coast of a Papua New Guinean island raised eyebrows — and questions. Were pieces of Amelia Earhart's infamously missing plane finally found?
