Nukumanu Atoll and Amelia Earhart
We have today charted the rim of the secluded Nukumanu atoll, the last known location of Amelia Earhart, the adventuresome aviation innovator of her time. Earhart tried the first flight around the world in 1937 by a lady in a special aircraft, a Lockheed Electra. In spite of considerable efforts by the US Navy, neither Earhart nor her plane were retrieved, and where she has vanished is still a puzzle today.
The Nukumanu Atoll, the last reconfirmed location Earhart announced for the Electra, will be mapped in detail during our mappings work. In order to precisely chart the area around the Nukumanu and Ontong Java islands, it was indispensable for the vessel to get very close to the country, as it is as large as ours.
However, bad vision and strong rains can happen quickly and suddenly, and it is not difficult to conceive of a relatively brittle 1930s aircraft vanishing into such a wide, secluded place. Today's discoverers have a variety of technologies on our side. With the greatest possible regard we look at the experience of pioneers like Earhart, who encountered large parts of the unfamiliar without the calming assistance of GPS and a committed navigation team.
It is a mystery to us whether the gigantic Kroenke Canyon originates from the old volcanoes and perhaps even came about through a process that can only be seen as the etolls of Nukumanu and Ontong Java.
