According to the latest MH370 report from the Daily Free Press, resuming the search for MH370 will help solve a mystery that has been overlooked for too long.
The news site said that, towards the search for MH370, all eyes are on Ocean Infinity - a US-based ocean robot company - which participated in the search for the missing Malaysia Airlines plane in 2018.
Ocean Infinity has agreed with the Malaysian government on a plan to resume the underwater search for MH370. If approved, a new search would begin in November 2024.
The Daily Free Press stressed that this November, the whole world will follow the new mission, if it takes place, to decoding one of the biggest mysteries that has haunted the aviation industry for the past 10 years.
If successful, the search for MH370 could be a much-needed end for the relatives of the passengers on the unfortunate flight.
MH370 - a Malaysia Airlines flight - disappeared on March 8, 2014 when departing from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing.
So far, the Boeing 777 and all passengers and crew have not been found. Only a few pieces of MH370 debris were discovered in 10 years after the plane disappeared.
A team of researchers has now developed a new method to pinpoint MH370's location, including dropping debris from the plane in the Indian Ocean, according to Interesting Engineering.
The project, called the "MH370 Search Initiative," was initiated with the specific goal of localizing the wreckage of the missing Boeing 777 in March 2014.
To achieve this goal, the project will not use drones equipped with sonar or launch a searches on the seabed as deployed by Ocean Infinity.
Instead, the MH370 search team plans to drop debris from the Boeing 777 into the Indian Ocean and monitor their movements.
Jeff Wise, a science journalist and private pilot, initiated the project. He has written books about the disappearance of MH370, hosted podsets, and appeared in many documentaries discussing the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines.
The first pieces of MH370 were discovered on the coast of Saint-Denis, Reunion Island, in July 2015. In recent years, scientists have focused on studying the drift of these debris to re- Locate the origin of the debris in the Indian Ocean. Previously, research groups have released wing parts of the plane into the sea for observation.
MH370 search expert Wise and his colleagues believe that these experiments need to be conducted more widely. He aims to drop a wing from a Boeing 777 equipped with sensors into the Indian Ocean. The MH370 Search Initiative will then spend 18 months analyzing the movement of the debris and tracking the development of marine life there to compare it with the debris MH370 has drifted ashore.
