Mh370 latest news最新消息
As of my last update in June 2023, there is no definitive answer as to what happened to Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 (MH370), which disappeared on March 8, 2014, while flying from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. The plane, carrying 227 passengers and 12 crew members, vanished from radar screens shortly after takeoff.
The search for MH370 has been one of the most extensive and costly in aviation history. Several countries, including Australia, China, and Malaysia, have led search efforts in the southern Indian Ocean, where satellite data and other evidence suggested the plane may have gone down.
Here are some key developments in the search for MH370:
Initial Search:
- In the weeks following the disappearance, a massive search and rescue operation was launched in the South China Sea and the Malacca Strait, areas where the plane was last detected on radar.
- After it became clear that the plane had likely flown far to the southwest, the search shifted to the southern Indian Ocean.
First Official Report:
- In March 2015, the Malaysian government released the first official report on the disappearance of MH370, which did not provide any conclusive answers about the plane's fate.
Debris Findings:
- In July 2015, the first piece of debris from MH370 was found on the coast of Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean. Subsequent finds of debris confirmed that the plane had crashed in the southern Indian Ocean.
Official Declarations:
- In January 2017, the Malaysian government declared the disappearance an accident and stated that all passengers and crew members were presumed to have been lost.
- In July 2018, the official search by the Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) was suspended after nearly three years, having covered more than 120,000 square kilometers (46,332 square miles) of the ocean floor.
Private Search:
- In September 2018, a private company, Ocean Infinity, began a new search for MH370, using advanced technology to scan the ocean floor. This search was unsuccessful.
New Investigations:
- In 2019, the Malaysian government released a final report by the Malaysian ICAO Annex 13 Safety Investigation Team, which did not identify the cause of the disappearance but provided a detailed analysis of the flight's last known movements.
Recent Developments:
- In 2021, a new search was launched by an American company, Seabed Constructor, using autonomous underwater vehicles. This search also did not find the main wreckage of the aircraft.
- In 2022, the Malaysian government announced that it would consider resuming the search for MH370 if new evidence emerges.
The disappearance of MH370 remains one of the greatest mysteries in aviation history, and the lack of a definitive answer has left the families of the victims without closure. The ongoing efforts to find the wreckage and determine the cause of the disappearance continue to be a subject of international interest and concern.
