Chinese Satellite Spots Object in Indian Ocean, Could Possibly Be MH370 Debris

A Chinese satellite has captured images of a big object in the Indian Ocean that could possibly be debris from the missing MH370 plane, and ships are being sent out to find out exactly what it is. This is one of the images caught by the satellite.

These satellite images were reportedly taken four days ago, according to Malaysia’s transport minister, and this possible piece of debris is a few dozen miles away from where the Australian government said other possible pieces of debris were in the ocean.

It’s been two weeks since the plane went missing, and aside from this possible debris being in the Indian Ocean, there are so far no clear indications of what happened. Planes have been scouring a massive radius to see if they can spot any trace of the Malaysian Airlines flight.
