Canberra: The largest object sighted in the search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 is 24 metres (79 feet), with a second, smaller object also spotted, Australian authorities said on Thursday. (Australia PM says objects from missing plane may have been spotted)
The objects sighted by satellite in the search for missing Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 form "probably the best lead we have", Australian officials said on Thursday.
"The objects are relatively indistinct. The indication to me is of objects that are of a reasonable size and probably awash with water and bobbing up and down over the surface," said Australian Maritime Safety Authority official John Young.
"The largest... was assessed as being 24 metres. There is another one that is smaller than that. This is a lead, it is probably the best lead we have right now. But we need to get there, find them, see them, assess them, to know whether it's really meaningful or not," Young said.
