Nearly twelve years after Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 vanished during a flight from Kuala Lumpur, a renewed search effort is underway in the southern Indian Ocean. The British-American company Ocean Infinity is utilizing advanced underwater drones equipped with side-scan sonar and AI to scan the ocean floor for signs of the missing aircraft.

The Malaysian government has agreed to pay Ocean Infinity $70 million only if the wreckage is found. To date, fewer than 30 fragments believed to be from MH370 have been recovered, and the disappearance remains one of aviation's most enduring mysteries.

MH370 lost contact with Subang Air Traffic Control at 2.40 a.m. Nearly a dozen years since a search began for Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 that plunged families of the 239 souls aboard into grief over a plane that took off from Kuala Lumpur for a routine six-hour overnight flight, but vanishing over the world's third-biggest body of water. Flight MH370 ended in the southern Indian Ocean. British-American deep-sea robotics company Ocean Infinity hopes to finally solve this tragic mystery in the next 55 days, deploying a fleet of the world's most advanced underwater drones that can dive nearly 20,000 feet deep, with side-scan sonar to build detailed 3D images to peer beneath the sediment and devices to detect metals from the aircraft. Crunching all this data fast into one big picture using AI that didn't exist then. If an object of interest is found, a remotely operated vehicle will be deployed for an even closer look. To date, fewer than 30 fragments, believed to be from MH370, have washed up on shores across the Indian Ocean. But no human remains have ever been recovered, and the plane's fate is one of the biggest mysteries of modern high-tech aviation. And Malaysia's government will pay Ocean Infinity $70 million, but this is no find, no fee, and that means there's no payout if there's nothing found. It's not a lot of money for this really massive search, but there would be prestige if they solved this mystery, Adriana. One of the biggest, absolutely, since the disappearance of Amelia Earhart.
