	Ina Koys visits Oeno Island (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		As Oeno Island may only be visited with the prior permission of the Commissioner for Pitcairn Islands in New Zealand, the islanders feel free to leave their possessions on the island, knowing they will not be taken or vandalized.
		Oeno Island is as flat as atolls usually are, with mangrove shrubs, pandanus and smaller herbs on it.
		At Oeno, Sandy Islet no longer exists, but rather there is a long sand spit reaching from the northern end of the main island which reaches the area where the other islet used to be.

	EO Newsroom: New Images - Island Evolution, Part 2: Oeno Island
		Sitting approximately 280 kilometers northwest of Pitcairn Island in the South Pacific, Oeno is a prime example of a tropical island in the middle stages of its development.
		Eventually, the volcanic hotspot that fueled Oeno’s initial growth shifted, and the central rocky mass began to sink and erode, leaving a shallow, pale blue lagoon in its place.
		This image of Oeno was taken on June 16, 2006, by the Advanced Land Imager on NASA’s EO-1 satellite as part of a Mid-decadal Global Land Survey.

		On the 8th of April, 2005 a Annular Solar Eclipse was experienced by a long narrow band of the Pacific Ocean.
