Make your own theory
Before you peek, what do you think the clues show?
Write or discuss an explanation in your own words. Then compare it with the sourced case note below. This preview doesn’t save responses.
What a careful answer can say: A careful claim is that the Smithsonian record documents Earhart’s solo, nonstop Atlantic crossing in the red Vega 5B on 20–21 May 1932, with the listed route.
What the evidence cannot settle: The collection record does not preserve every thought, weather change, or event during every hour aloft. Do not turn an inference into a recorded fact.
