The deep-sea explorer who discovered the Titanic will set out next month on a mission to solve the disappearance of famous aviator Amelia Earhart.

Robert Ballard, the oceanographer who found the Titanic in 1985 during a secret military operation, will begin to search for signs of Amelia Earhart, the pilot who disappeared from her attempted around-the-world flight more than 80 years ago.

Earhart and navigator Fred Noonan vanished on July 12, 1937, after taking off from Lae, New Guinea, in a Lockheed Electra 10E plane bound for Howard Island, located just north of the equator.

Her disappearance prompted years of search efforts and conspiracy theories, including beliefs Earhart was captured and killed by the Japanese, settled with the natives of a Pacific island and even returned to New Jersey where she secretly lived out the rest of her days as a housewife.

Ballard and a National Geographic expedition will search for her plane near a Pacific Ocean atoll that’s part of the Phoenix Islands.

Amelia Earheart. As a young girl reading about the mystery of her failed flight to fly around the world captured the imagination. I made up several scenarios, all of them included escape with her lover to an unknown island where they had many children who never had to go to school or wear shoes. Paradise!!
