Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370 vanished on March 8, 2014, after departing Kuala Lumpur for Beijing with 239 people aboard. The pilot's last radio call was “Good night, Malaysian Three Seven Zero.” The plane's transponder stopped transmitting minutes later, military radar tracked a turn back over the Andaman Sea, and satellite data suggest the jet kept flying for hours before a probable crash in a remote southern Indian Ocean area. Theories include hijacking, depressurization, or power failure, and no distress call or conclusive technical evidence has been recovered. A few small fragments washed ashore, but no bodies or major wreckage were found. Ocean Infinity will resume a seabed search starting Dec. 30.
