Midway Islands Background: The US took formal possession of the islands in 1867. The laying of the trans-Pacific cable, which passed through the islands, brought the first residents in 1903. Between 1935 and 1947, Midway was used as a refueling stop for trans-Pacific flights. The US naval victory over a Japanese fleet off Midway in 1942 was one of the turning points of World War II. The islands continued to serve as a naval station until closed in 1993. Today the islands are a national wildlife refuge. From 1996 to 2001 the refuge was open to the public. It is now temporarily closed. Location: Oceania, atoll in the North Pacific Ocean, about one-third of the way from Honolulu to Tokyo Area: Total: 6.2 sq km. Note: includes Eastern Island, Sand Island, and Spit Island. Area - comparative: About nine times the size of The Mall in Washington, DC. Coastline: 15 km. Maritime claims: Exclusive economic zone: 200 NM, territorial sea: 12 NM. Climate and Terrain: Climate: Subtropical, but moderated by prevailing easterly winds. Terrain: Low, nearly level. Elevation extremes: Lowest point: Pacific Ocean m, highest point: unnamed location 13 m. Natural resources: Wildlife, terrestrial and aquatic. Land use: Arable land: 0%. Geography - note: A coral atoll managed as a national wildlife refuge and open to the public for wildlife-related recreation in the form of wildlife observation and photography, sport fishing, snorkeling, and scuba diving; the refuge is temporarily closed for reorganization at present.
