Amelia Earhart's Lockheed 10 found?

This is probably the most credible evidence of Earhart found to date. It's pretty clear that she was close to Howland Island as the USCGC Itasca could hear her radio transmissions. It is interesting that this group turned up this sonar picture by applying the thought that a fatigued Noonan failed to take into account his crossing of the international date line in his celestial navigation, putting them about 60 miles off course. This image is said to have been taken within 100 miles of Howland Island. I don't believe the other group that continues to claim she was at Gardner Island, as that was searched extensively at the time and any other theory that she was taken by the Japanese or was spying is pretty wild and out there.
