If Amelia Earhart were still alive, she’d be turning 127 this year – and yet the mystery surrounding her disappearance still fascinates us as much now as it did in 1937, the year her plane lost contact in an attempt to circumnavigate the globe. Celebrate the trailblazer’s life (there will even be cake!) and hear about the latest attempts to find her plane on the ocean floor from the Deep Sea Vision team.
