Theory Briefing

  • A 16-person research team is travelling to Nikumaroro in October, the remote Pacific island at the centre of the castaway theory.
  • The popular theory holds that Earhart and her navigator survived a landing and died as castaways rather than going down over the ocean.
  • Researchers say 'something is there,' suggesting prior evidence has already hinted at physical remains or artefacts on the island.
