Amelia Earhart: New evidence tells of her last days on a Pacific atoll (+video) - CSMonitor.com
For decades, pioneer aviator Amelia Earhart was said to have disappeared over the Pacific on her quest to circle the globe along a 29,000-mile equatorial route.Now, new information gives a clearer picture of what happened 75 years ago to Ms. Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan, where they came down and how they likely survived for a while, at least as castaways on a remote island, catching rainwater and eating fish, shellfish, and turtles to survive.
The tale hints at lost opportunities to locate and rescue the pair in the first crucial days after they went down, vital information dismissed as inconsequential or a hoax, the failure to connect important dots regarding physical evidence.
