Expedition Amelia

Amelia Earhart is a name synonymous with adventure, bravery and mystery. The famous aviator deftly traversed the world — and society — to pursue her passion for exploration … a passion that ultimately cost her life. Earhart’s tragic end led to decades of speculation about what actually happened to her. Now, National Geographic Explorer-at-Large Dr. Robert Ballard, best known for his 1985 discovery of the Titanic shipwreck, is setting out to solve the mystery of her disappearance.
