Sarah Ann

Sarah Ann

Sarah Ann ist der Name einer Phantominsel, die in der Nähe der Osterinsel gesichtet und auf verschiedenen Seekarten verzeichnet wurde.

Da die Koordinaten der Insel im Bereich der totalen Sonnenfinsternis vom 8. Juni 1937 liegen würden, suchten 1932 mehrere Schiffe der Pazifikflotte der United States Navy einige Wochen lang nach Sarah Ann. Da sie erfolglos blieben, wurde die Insel ab 1932 von den Seekarten entfernt.
