A world update

Here is an update about the search for the Lost Malaysian Flight 370. Researchers were following what

was believed to be a ping signal from the black box of the lost Boeing 777 plane. After scouting the

Indian ocean, the researchers have determined that the ping signal was in fact from a false positive. The

signal’s frequency is at 33.3 kilohertz rather than at 37.5kilohertz as emitted from the black box. The

plane disappeared on March 8 with 239 passengers and crew members aboard.
