• The Nikumaroro Hypothesis – landed, survived for
awhile, and died on Nikumaroro atoll in the
Phoenix Islands.
The International Group for Historic Aircraft Recovery (TIGHAR) has been conducting
interdisciplinary scientific research testing the Nikumaroro Hypothesis since 1989, and
may be coming close to an answer. Amelia Earhart’s Shoes, first published in 2001 and
republished in an updated paperback edition in 2004, recounts TIGHAR’s adventures and
presents the evidence.
