July 2nd, 1937
After forty-two days of flight, Earhart and Noonan
Took off at 10 a.m. from Papua New Guinea
Headed for Howland Island
A tiny piece of coral in the middle of the Pacific ocean
The coast guard cutter Itasca posted nearby was assigned to guide her in
Earhart estimated her chances of finding the island at about fifty-fifty
As she flew towards the island, she was broadcasting, but on the wrong frequency
The closer she got, the fainter her voice became
To make a sharper signal, she bеgan a series of loud whistles
But thе mid-Pacific was full of high frequency radio code
And her signals were lost
