After more than ten years since its disappearance, the search for the missing Flight MH370 has been reignited, with a belief that the aircraft may be trapped in a mysterious ‘black hole’ in the Indian Ocean.
On March 8, 2014, Flight MH370 departed from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 passengers on board, initiating one of the most baffling modern mysteries. Initially, everything appeared normal on the Malaysia Airlines passenger jet until it vanished off the radar shortly after entering Vietnamese airspace.
A retired researcher, Dr. Vincent Lyne, has put forth an unverified theory suggesting that the wreckage of MH370 could be located in the Penang Longitude Deep Hole in the Indian Ocean. Dr. Lyne identified a yellow pixel anomaly in the ocean’s terrain model at coordinates Latitude: 33.02°S, Longitude: 100.27°E, near Penang Airport.
Dr. Lyne’s analysis of GEBCO bathymetric data revealed the peculiar pixel at a depth of 5,750 meters, indicating a potential crash site for MH370. He proposed that the disappearance of the plane was not accidental but a meticulously planned event orchestrated by someone aiming to crash the aircraft.
The theory of deliberate action gains further support from experts like Jean Luc Marchand and retired pilot Patrick Blelly, who, in a documentary, simulated MH370’s final flight path. They suggested that an experienced pilot intentionally steered the plane into a “black hole” region to evade detection.
Despite various hypotheses, the fate of MH370 remains elusive, with extensive search efforts yielding minimal results. Malaysian authorities have authorized a new search zone in the southern Indian Ocean, partnering with Ocean Infinity in a “no-find, no-fee” agreement, offering a reward of up to $70 million for locating the plane.
The ongoing quest to unravel the mystery of Flight MH370 continues, as experts and officials explore new avenues to uncover the truth behind the aircraft’s disappearance.
