Amelia Earhart


I came to the presentation couple of hours late. We came there when the presentation was half way done. The Amelia Earhart presentation was, in my opinion, was BORING. Though the fact that i was about to sleep in during the presentation, there were some information that kept me awake. There was this experiment where the explorers tried to test if crabs were able to takes and rip of the body parts of a dead pig. They did experiment because they thought that creatures like crabs were able to take pieces of the body of Amelia.
They also showed some interesting information about the plane in the old days. There was one part where they found a small piece of iron and didn't know what it is for. Then the next thing you know, they came up with the theory that there was a piece of iron that was invented in the airstrip where Amelia was. The iron served as one separator for the gas tanks.
One thing that bugs me the most is the fact that there is still no plane found in the place where they suspect that amelia earhart landed. They believed that they are somewhere in the sea somewhere in the atols.
