Smithsonian Castle Reopens on the National Mall With Artifacts and a Lobster Rolls Café

Smithsonian Castle on the National Mall reopens May 22–Sept 7 after years of renovation, housing the new 'American Aspirations' exhibit with artifacts like Thomas Jefferson's writing desk and Amelia Earhart's flight suit. A new Summer Shack café serves New England fare, including lobster rolls, with indoor seating and grab‑and‑go options. The broader reopening includes the Arts and Industries Building (reopening June 16) for public programming through Sept 7 as part of the Smithsonian’s push for the 250th anniversary.

Amelia Earhart Plane Discovery Turns Out to Be a Rock Formation

Deep Sea Vision, a deep-sea exploration company, initially believed it had found Amelia Earhart's missing plane using sonar images, but later confirmed the images showed a natural rock formation. Earhart's disappearance in 1937 remains one of aviation's greatest mysteries, with various theories about her fate. Despite the setback, the company continues its search for the aircraft, having surveyed over 7,700 square miles of ocean floor.

Amelia Earhart Plane Mystery Solved: Underwater Object Was Just a Rock

A sonar image initially believed to show Amelia Earhart's plane was identified as a natural rock formation by Deep Sea Vision, a marine robotics firm. The image, taken near Howland Island, sparked excitement earlier this year but was later confirmed not to be Earhart's Lockheed 10-E Electra. Despite the setback, the company plans to continue searching for Earhart's crash site.

"Ocean Exploration Company Uncovers Possible Proof of Amelia Earhart's Wrecked Plane"

Deep Sea Vision, an ocean exploration company, claims to have discovered an airplane-shaped object 16,000 feet beneath the Pacific Ocean's surface, potentially belonging to Amelia Earhart's lost plane. The company encountered technical issues with the photographic evidence during their $11 million expedition, but managed to retrieve the data, revealing a hazy image resembling a plane. The team is planning to return to the site for solid confirmation, with the belief that the wreckage fits Earhart's missing craft.

"Unconventional Team's Sonar Breakthrough: Amelia Earhart's Long-Lost Plane Found?"

A potential breakthrough in the 87-year-old mystery surrounding Amelia Earhart’s disappearance emerged as sonar images of a plane-shaped mass, believed to be her Lockheed 10-E Electra, were released by adventurers Tony and Lloyd Romeo. The images, nearly lost due to hard drive issues during their $11 million Pacific Ocean expedition, may confirm a 14-year-old "Date Line" theory about Earhart's ill-fated flight. The theory suggests that navigator Fred Noonan's miscalculation sent them off course, leading to their disappearance in 1937. A follow-up expedition is planned to retrieve better sonar images and confirm the findings, potentially resolving the decades-long mystery.

"New Sonar Image Sparks Hope of Finding Amelia Earhart's Lost Plane"

A research team believes it has found Amelia Earhart’s twin-engine plane deep beneath the Pacific Ocean using sonar imaging, potentially adding a new chapter to her mysterious disappearance. Meanwhile, the moon is experiencing shrinking and moonquakes, making the lunar south pole a risky place for astronauts, and new drone footage may have revealed the first newborn great white shark in the wild. Additionally, complete tree fossils resembling palms were discovered in Canada, and the James Webb Space Telescope captured stunning images of 19 galaxies, providing new insights into star formation and galactic evolution.

"New Discovery Adds Twist to Amelia Earhart's Missing Plane Mystery"

Deep Sea Vision, a company using advanced deep sea scanning technology, believes it may have found Amelia Earhart's plane resting on the floor of the Pacific Ocean. The founder, Tony Romeo, invested $11m into the expedition and is excited about the discovery, but experts caution that further examination is needed to confirm the object's identity. Earhart's disappearance in 1937 remains one of the greatest aviation mysteries, and researchers have been attempting to find evidence of her fate for nearly 90 years.

"New Discovery: The Search for Amelia Earhart's Lost Plane"

A sonar image captured by Deep Sea Visions in the Pacific Ocean has reignited interest in the mystery of Amelia Earhart's disappearance, potentially showing her plane. The next step is to visually confirm the object and potentially raise the aircraft, which could be complicated due to its condition and international standards for underwater archaeology. Raising the plane and placing it in a museum would likely cost hundreds of millions of dollars, and legal issues regarding ownership and salvage claims may arise. The Deep Sea Vision team hopes to have an announcement before the end of the year.

"New Discovery: The Search for Amelia Earhart's Lost Plane"

A private pilot's sonar image has reignited interest in the disappearance of Amelia Earhart's plane in 1937, with a South Carolina-based sea exploration company, Deep Sea Vision, potentially capturing an outline of her Lockheed 10-E Electra at a depth of 16,000 feet. The next step is to visually confirm the object, but debates arise about its proper handling if found. The potential discovery could shed light on Earhart's fate and aviation history, but questions remain about the legal and preservation aspects of raising the plane from the ocean floor.
