The U.S. National Archives has released newly declassified records related to Amelia Earhart, who disappeared in 1937 during her round-the-world flight with navigator Fred Noonan. The declassification, ordered by President Trump, includes communications, weather conditions, and search efforts following her disappearance. Among the documents is a radio log from the Coast Guard cutter Itasca, the last vessel to contact Earhart before she vanished. Despite the release of thousands of documents, experts doubt they will provide new insights into her fate, as the prevailing theory suggests she ran out of fuel and crashed in the Pacific.
