Amelia Earhart Search Finds No Wreckage

Seventy-five years after the famous aviator’s disappearance, one team’s renewed search for the wreckage of Amelia Earhart’s airplane has come up empty handed.

The $2.2 million effort, undertaken by the International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery (Tighar), involved a five-day search of the waters surrounding the Pacific island of Nikumaroro.
