由理查德·佩蒂格鲁率领的团队将于2025年11月搜索Nikumaroro的环礁湖, 寻找Amelia Earhart的飞机残骸, 利用先进科技测试她1937年坠落的理论。 A team led by Richard Pettigrew will search Nikumaroro’s lagoon in Nov. 2025 for wreckage of Amelia Earhart’s plane, using advanced tech to test the theory she crash-landed there in 1937.

由Richard Pettigrew和Purdue大学牵头的搜索考察定于2025年11月开始,利用先进技术调查Nikumaroro岛的环礁湖中的一个金属物体,据信这是Amelia Earhart失踪的Lockheed Electra 10-E的一部分。 A search expedition led by Richard Pettigrew and Purdue University is set to begin in November 2025, using advanced technology to investigate a metallic object in Nikumaroro Island’s lagoon, believed to be part of Amelia Earhart’s missing Lockheed Electra 10-E. 该小组在Nikumaroro假想理论的支持下,旨在确认Earhart是否于1937年坠毁在岛上。 The team, supported by the Nikumaroro Hypothesis, aims to confirm if Earhart crash-landed on the island in 1937. 虽然主流历史学家认为她坠入太平洋, 但这个理论表明她作为弃儿短暂存活下来。 While mainstream historians believe she crashed into the Pacific, this theory suggests she survived briefly as a castaway. 该任务经过多年的研究和事先考察后,利用声纳、磁强计和疏浚来探索该场地,研究人员预测由于新的数据和技术,成功概率很高。 The mission, following years of research and prior expeditions, uses sonar, magnetometers, and dredging to explore the site, with a high probability of success predicted by researchers due to new data and technology.
