What Happened To Amelia Earhart

What happened to Amelia Earhart?

During the time that Amelia Earhart was sprouting into adulthood, women were just starting to stand up for their wants and needs, including operating an aircraft. Amelia began her first flight lessons on a sunny day in January of 1921 (Historychannel1). Amelia had many obstacles in the way of learning to fly but with the help of her very trusty flight instructor, “Neta Snook,’ Amelia ultimately achieved her goal of flying (Historychannel1). She then began competing in the air and was one of the first women to fly. Her successes were inevitable, but her career was unfortunately cut short after her plane crashed as she attempted to circumnavigate the world for the second time (what happened to Amelia Earhart).

Several groups, communities and companies including her husband, George Putnam, then tried to locate the two. Like the United States Coast Guard, they too came up short on their quest to locate them (what happened to Amelia1).

It was also said that, the two crashed around the island and were taken as a hostage and killed by Japanese mercenaries. Another theory states that the two returned safely to the United States and are in fact alive and well as of today. There are so many theories about what happened to Amelia and many people to are still clinging to the hope that she may still be alive and in the United States, safe. As for now, no one will ever know what really happened to her, but many scientists are still on the lookout for her or even a scrap of her plane, in the United States, and unfortunately, at the bottom of the pacific ocean around The Howland Islands(history.net). But, where ever Amelia the Great may be, there will always be many people that have and will continue to show their support for her cause, and the great things that she did for America in the early years of the making of aviation in the United States of
