Google Doodle Celebrates Amelia Earhart’s 115th Birthday


Today’s Google Doodle celebrates the 115th birthday of aviation pioneer Amelia Earhart.
Earhart was the first woman to fly alone across the Atlantic ocean, one year after Charles Lindbergh’s solo flight across the Atlantic in 1927.
She repeated that feat in 1932, and in 1935 became the first person to fly solo from Honolulu, Hawaii to Oakland, California.
Earhart disappeared during her round-the-world flight in 1937, never to be found. Though recent efforts tried tosolve the mystery of Earhart’s disappearance, her fate still remains unknown.
