A Chinese satellite looking for Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 has found what is suspected to be a possible crash site.
The images have been posted by China’s State Administration for Science, Technology and Industry. They were taken Sunday – the day after Flight MH370 went missing – and they appear to show pieces of wreckage in the water. The sattelite spotted three items in the sea, the largest of which was 24m by 22m in size.

If these are pieces of Flight MH370 wreckage, that would indicate that the flight was on the correct flight path when it went missing – contrary to reports that the plane had drastically changed direction.

It gets odder and odder. I just read this article (2 days old now):
The conspiracy theories surrounding missing flight MH370

This is such a tragedy.
How is it that satellites can find you on Google earth and see into your backyard but they cant find a giant honking plane?!?!? The stories just don’t seem to add up to me? Conspiracy? Cover-Up? Its all very strange.
The pictures on Google Earth that let you see into your back yard are taken from low flying aircraft.
From the best public knowledge the absolute highest resolution possible from a satellite is about 10cm. That would show up a plane pretty well but only if that particular satellite was over the area the plane crashed on a clear day. Basically reconnaissance satellites aren't what you see in the movies.
Just because they're not sharing everything doesn't mean it's a conspiracy or cover up. There is no point in sharing every single lead if it is doesn't go anywhere. There's enough conjecture anyway.
How? Omg the satellitie cant see the plane parts because the plane are on the deep of ocean
