Midway Island, at the far northwest tip of the Hawaiian island chain. It was the site of a crucial battle in World War 2, a naval battle in which the opposing ships never saw nor directly fired on each other. (Their airplanes did the seeing and attacking.)

Yo... Guinea pig lover! Get out an atlas, pick up a ruler, and figure it out for yourself. Does the phrase "original research" mean anything to you?
