Deep Sea Vision claims to have found Amelia Earhart's missing aircraft, which disappeared in 1937 during her attempt to circumnavigate the globe. A team utilized sonar imaging to identify an anomaly over 16,000 feet underwater, with a 100-day search covering 5,200 square miles of seafloor. Further investigation is needed, including sending cameras down to confirm the discovery.
