and the second an orange, rectangular object. these are separate to the objects reported earlier today by a chinese search aircraft. >> two chinese military airport planes joined the search. one did report seeing objects in the sea after they found a grainy image of something in the water. but this usair craft, the most advanced surveillance plane in the world, went to the same area and found nothing. frustration and new hope in two weeks of searching. >> in perth from where many of the search planes are going out. phil, updates on the latest developments in terms of the objects and where they are. >> we understand that orion has just touched down at the air base north of perth. it could hold vital clues. with this news that it spotted two objects in the southern indian option there must be worlds of caution that there have been false leads before. this could be a vital part of the puzzle. we have had 10 aircraft in the skies over the ocean. a chinese aircraft says it spotted debris too. it might be pivotal. we'll only know when

the first a gray or green circular object and the second an orange rectangular object. these are separate to the objects reported earlier today by a chinese search aircraft. a u.s. navy poseidon, a second royal australian air force orion and japanese orion are also en route to or in the search area. planes and ships continue to search the area for any sign of the missing aircraft. i caution again, mr. acting deputy speaker, that we don't know whether any of these objects are from mh-370. nevertheless, we are hopeful we can recover these objects soon and they will take us a step closer to resolving this tragic mystery. this is an extraordinary mystery, absolutely baffling mystery. but as i've said mr., mr. acting deputy speaker, let me reiterate to this house we owe it to the families of those on board. we owe it to the loved ones of those on board. we owe it to all the people concerned about this aircraft to do what we reasonably can to find anything that is out there to test it and to see what we can learn about whatsoever is one of the great mysteries of our time. >>

we kept getting reports of the rectangular masses without color.sts are orange, the life rafts are usually yellow. it important that we've gotten these clues. what's really encouraging is that the numbers are starting to mount up. yes, there are more people looking but they match both the satellite coordinates, they march the report -- match the report from two days after the plane went missing. they still have to bring it on home. they have to get a piece of wreckage on the ship to confirm and also have to find the black box. >> and it brings more speed, there's something spotted and there are other planes in the area. we have reports overnight that the military radar tracked 370 between 1:19 and 2:40 a.m. making a sharp turn over the china sea but then also changing dramatically its altitude to 12,000 feet. give us an idea of what scenario matches with a plane suddenly turning and drop being to 12,000 feet. >> the military radar was able to discern by detecting that was not inconsistent with what pilots call a high dive, meaning at 35,000 feet yo

one is circular, one rectangular.hours, certainly by tomorrow. let's bring in steve wallace. he's a fomer director of the faa's office of accident investigation and a cnn aviation analyst. and steve, we spoke to someone earlier who basically said there could be three things that happened. it was either a botched hijacking, possibly a suicide, or if that plane did fall to 12,000 feet, perhaps it was a rapid depressurization of the cabin and the pilot may have even gone unconscious. is that -- are any of those theories possible, which is why this plane was so far off course? >> well, they're all possible, except to some extent, we're working on two mutually exclusive theories here. so, if we accept that those innings off the inmarset satellite that resulted in the two arcs north and south, if we accept that those are solid evidence, and that seems to be among the more solid evidence to me, well, that kind of -- well, we seem to have said that because we're spending millions of dollars a day down there searching in the s

>> on the planes, you have lots of rectangular things and rectangular things don't occur in nature.od service carts, cargo containers in the plane, potentially, pieces of luggage, rectangular equipment on the plane. you have a lot of things on aircraft and ships too that don't have rounded edges. in nature, things are kind of rounded. so it is encouraging that they find things that wouldn't just be out there, like clumps of seaweed. one time, they had found a whale carcus. the shapes and colors are very important. they are going to have to pick it up and get it on a ship to see if it is the plane and identify it. that will be a tremendous breakthrough. >> it is encouraging. they saw it with their naked eye. they weren't looking for debris in a satellite image as they have been for the past several days. >> that's very important. absolutely. not only that, they start with the naked eye but more than one aircraft picked it up. so it is something that is there. they will be able to find it. they have marked the position and will be able to send the ships there to finally haul it up on

perrault made the outline of his building almost rectangular. the long facade is almost flat.o is the outline. there's no piling up, no modeling. the architectural emphasis is on the linking elements, the freestanding runs of columns. the building became known, not surprisingly, as the louvre colonnade. perrault was determined that his columns should not be decorative elements, but as, he thought, in ancient greek architecture, the supports of the building-- strong structural supports. he introduced engineering of a very high order into his design. the columns are threaded through with bars of iron, which are linked to crossbars in the ceiling and anchored into the walls behind. here is the initial idea that led to the development of reinforced concrete in the 20th century. almost 100 years later, exactly these same ideas were taken up by another architect-- soufflot--when he was commissioned to build the grandest, the noblest church in all of europe-- sainte genevieve, called the pantheon today. actually, you can even see it from here. tradition and reason were also soufflot'

of what they described as a circular, large circular object, gray, green in color as well as a rectangular orange object. now, they said one of their warships was to check that out. also, other planes going in to see what they can make of that. but that's going on now, that operation, but still no certainty as to what they have seen, richard. >> thank you so much, ian williams for us, watching the latest from australia. >>> curt hoffman was holding his arm underwater trying to catch a wave. then suddenly the kite boarder felt like he got caught in a bear trap, only it was a little bit bigger. try a shark. >> you can see the teeth marks and around it, about seven inches wide, the width of the mouth. and then pretty intense, kind of shocks your system at the moment that it hit. >> i bet. >> and florida shark bites are different than california shark bites. >> yes. a little bigger, aren't they, out west? great whites there. >> in florida, a lot of them are the feeding sharks, nurse sharks and sand sharks, yeah. they nibble. >> a little contact. >>> let's talk about what happened in washington

they found objects that were gray cylindrical and orange rectangular.have heard richard quest saying that could be some sort of airline debris. even after the royal air force put down flares, they haven't been able to find them. there has been a ship in the area for hours looking for them before nightfall. so this task is still very much a huge challenge, isn't it? >> it absolutely is. as you well know, even though the prime minister had to make this unfortunate announcement, that they believe they went down in the southern indian ocean. it is still a massive task of finding not only pieces of debris but finding all of the wreckage if it is here in the southern indian ocean. this is an ocean that is three miles deep in places and it is so vast. i was up in a plane with the new zealand air force yesterday. we talk about it on air. when you get up there and you sit through the flight, you get a new understanding of just how vast and endless this area is. it is like nothing i have ever seen. it really shows just what a huge challenge all of these search te

the other looks rectangular. the crew of this chinese plane also spotted several other objects overnight in that same search area. no one's confirming the objects are part of flight 370, but one of the australian flight crew members says he's flown over the area three times, and this is the first time he spotted anything. >> an australian naval ship is checking on the debris. reports as we speak. nbc's tom costello has the latest on the search for the plane that was carrying 239 people. tom, what do we know at this time this morning? >> that's the royal ship, the royal hms ship. it's headed into this area right here. because those objects spotted by the australians was within the search zone. one of them is groeen. the other one is orange, we're told. those objects spotted by the chinese were outside of the search zone, so they've now actually asked for the chinese ice breaker ship to move into that area and check out any signs that it can spot the debris. but so far, no reporting back. by the way, an american p8

rectangular object. orange rectangular object and around and gray green looking object. these were spotted by air. unfortunately there was no sort of other contact with them. but the british, rather, the australian naval vessel is in that area and hopes to identify those objects in the next few hours. once daylight breaks. so we should have some kind of evidence one way or the other whether this debris is linked to the missing airliner. >> roger, if i understand you correctly, the debris that they saw by air and that -- so that we would have photographs from the air, camera not by satellite images, were pictures taken by a camera on the plane so that can be at least shown to some of the -- those who are suffering so and who doubt this report? >> i have certainly not seen any pictures this is purely made by comments made to the australian parliament last night by prime minister tony abbot. there presumably is some kind of photographic evidence but it may not have been published yet. those shapes that apparent debris found in the search area does look pretty convincing by

the rectangular object is orange. investigators say those colors are important and they are intrigued by them. we'll talk about that in a moment. now this development comes as a chinese plane located even more potential debris. in addition we're awaiting more satellite images to be released this time by france. search teams still have not found debris detected in two other satellite photos the first on your left 78 feet long, and 16 feet long and haven't found this debris either. this too taken by a chinese satellite. cnn andrew spencer is in perth, australia where the search may be gaining new momentum. take it away. >> reporter: no doubt about it. this search is indeed gaining new momentum. in fact we're being told the malaysian prime minister may be making a press statement in the next hour or two. so, i don't think he's going to be making a press statement just to reframe what we already know. so that's a closely watched affair. the search is ramping up and as more planes go up, more debris success discovered. two

another orange and rectangular. this is the first solid lead to be sure in the three weeks since the plane disappeared. dozens of ships are streaming in that direction to try to get a handle what this debris is. emergency meeting for the families has also been called. we're waiting for a news conference. we expect that will get underway at top of the hour. a lot of breaking news in this story. doug mckelway is live in washington. doug, any identifying characteristics they were able to discern on these new floating objects they have found? >> reporter: martha the objects were spotted in the search hour 1550 miles southwest of perth. spotted 2:45 a.m. australian time today. the crew reported seeing two objects the first as you said, gray or green. it is circular. the second one orange and rectangular in shape. now these are different from the objects reported earlier in the day by a chinese search aircraft. the australian prime minister reported that a u.s. navy poseidon, a second australian air force orion and japane

one circular and one recognizeç rectangular.ible the objects could be received within the next few hours or by tomorrow morning. >> that is the next step, getting a ship to see if they can check out these debris sightings to see if in fact they can find the debris and if that debris came from an airliner. this has been a complicated part of the search coordinating what the aircrafts see with what the ships find. the current can be swift and move these objects around over a considerable distance over a short period of time. the u.s. navy is not waiting for confirmation. they are preparing as far as their equipment goes and bringing in a deviceç they tow behind a vessel once they have an approximate location of where that debris can be. this device can pick up the pinger even at a depth of 20,000 feet. it can be useful but only if they get to the ballpark of where the downed aircraft can be. >> it is interesting they're just bringing this in now. surprised they do that earlier. >> they got a better idea of where it was. one of th

on board an australian plane saw two objects, the first, gray or green and the second orange and rectangularer sign of a wooden pallet spotted on saturday. >> it was carrying wooden pallets. however, there is as of yet, no evidence that these are related to the pallets sighted in the australian search area. >> the u.s. is sending a device that can detect pings underwater from a plane's blacks box. investigators need to pinpoint where the plane may have gone down. >>> we're continue to go follow breaking news out of chicago. train service at the busy o'hare airport at a halt after an 8 car commuter train derailed early this morning. 32 passengers on board were injured when the train failed to stop, jumped the tracks. police are trying to piece together what happened. some suspect the train may have been traveling too fast. none of the injured passengers have life threatenings injuries. >>> let's get a check on the roads. >> nothing but good news at the bay bridge toll plaza. haven't had accidents or major delays. we're seeing back ups in the outside cash paying lanes. we checked with bridge o

something like a hose, something rectangular, circular and sil inned rickal. >> the pilot brings thelane higher, redirecting another plane and a navy ship towards the object. >> i've been in communication with the rescue control center. essentially they've released a crew to assist us, as this is the latest priority, i guess, which is collecting the items. logging and trying to classify them. >> descending again, another object is spotted. more smoke and a gps. the search plane is low on fuel and needs to fly the four hours back from the search zone to the bass. >> the crew has seen and marked the position. hours later malaysia's prime minister confirmed flight mh370 crashed. >> world leaders will resume their summit in the netherlands shortly after suspending russia from the g8 group of economic powers and threaten to impose sanctions against russia, if it pushes further into ukraine. we have this report from the hague. >> president obama convened the g7 meeting to discuss imposing another cost on russia. they decided to suspend russia's membership of the g8 until its policy changes

one is described as an orange, rectangular object, the other a grayer/green circular object. it's the best lead they've had. nbc's tom costello, who's been following this story for us since the beginning, joins us now with more on the search. and tom, did it come down to that satellite analysis? >> yeah, mrsat, which was receiving those pings, you recall, off the acars system to a satellite 22,000 miles or so up in orbit, tried to refine that data even more. they had already suggested somehow this plane may have taken a southerly arc, you may recall, so they were trying to get a fix on these pings they were getting once an hour coming from the satellite and figure out, okay, where would this plane be, so now they believe that that last ping would put it somewhere in this juncture. so what does that mean? it means this plane probably came down like this. pay no attention necessarily to this original arc. what really matters is what is the location of the last ping and all suggests that it's probably in the deep south indian ocean. the distance from perth, australia, we've talk

we saw that rectangular object that was spotted. does that look like something to you? >> well, we've been talking about it all day of course. one thing i don't know the scale, is that the size of a lottery ticket or a refrigerator door? i'm not sure. somebody tweeted at me and said is that a lavatory door from the airplane? i'm not sure it would float but potentially. but generally speaking, rectangular objects we don't associate with the outer skin of an aircraft which will be curved and swept back and aerodynamic. this is something you want to go pick up and see what it is. >> david soucie, do you see anything there? >> the only thing potentially -- again like miles said, without scale it's virtually impossible to determine what it is. it could be a landing gear door, square flat similar to that. but it would also have as he mentioned some aerodynamics. >> other pieces of plane as well. >> absolutely. >> the idea, how much time has been lost here? i don't want to sound critical because everybody's been trying to do their best obviously with very limited information.

morning a royal australian p-3 spotted what they say was a gray or green circular object, and another rectangular object. the hmas success is en route, could be picking up items. keep in mind the sun is about to go down so it might not be until tomorrow morning. this is happening about 1600 miles southwest of perth, australia. that's the bottom center of your screen there. those two items should be noted are different from the two large floating objects and small white ones spotted earlier by chinese military aircraft. this morning new information about another object that was spotted days ago by a commercial aircraft. you might remember that wooden palate with the straps and belts. hours ago malaysia's transportation minister said there were palates but it's possible one fell off a cargo ship. i believe you are looking at video from a new zealand krarkt, and the united states are involved. they are trying to find these possible pieces of evidence looking out a plane window at 200 feet above the surface. not very easy. >> 200 miles an hour the world is whistling past and you're looking for an obj

one is a gray or green circular object and the other is an orange rectangular object. it's not clear whether they are parts from the plane. the debris is the latest in a series of satellite or visual sightings. let's get to the search operation now. strong winds grounded the search plane on monday. we turn to andrew stephens who is live on perth with more on what's happening today. there were great expectations when everybody heard australia's defense minister was coming to talk to the assembled media there but not a lot disclosed and no mention of those objects and what came of that. that's right. there was an expectation here among the press core that after the announcement from the malaysian prime minister yesterday that mh 370 crashed. we were expecting the minister to add detail about those pieces of debris that you just mentioned. they were spotted by the royal air force yesterday. a ship was sent to that area. to give you an idea how difficult this search remain, the defense minister said we are close to that area where that debris was spotted. those two pieces

they both looked relatively rectangular. this one was sighted 120 kilometers from the australian items. given the difference in times between when the images were required, that would imply an average surface speed of 2.5 kilometers per hour between point a and point b. it's possible it might be the same object. it's possible it might be different objects from a different part of the debris field. >> there's no way of telling what the objects might be until they get eyes on them. david from denver, david what about the area where they found it? sean was talking about it, 75 miles from the first bodies of debris. is that close enough to be related, in your mind? >> in my mind, it is. there's so many factors that put it there. if a piece of that is sticking up in the air, you have wind currents taking it one direction. if the rest is under the water, that could be taking it another direction or complimenting it, adding to the wind direction. i think it's possible, certainly. >> within the wider area in the southern arc they ha

one orange and rectangular. an australian warship is actually close enough right now to see on radar, but no retrieval as of yet. relatives of the passengers have been frustrated by how long it's taking to receive possible debris from their loved ones' flight, but this should not come as a surprise when you consider it is so small and the ocean is so big. >> when you get there on the ocean, the boat, the horizon is only a few miles away. you realize how tiny you are and how big the ocean is, so i'm not surprised at all by this. >> that man helped find the wreckage of air france flight 470. the malaysian prime minister said there will be another news conference tomorrow with further details on what happened to flight 370, which disappeared, it's been 17 days now with 239 people onboard. peggy, laura. >> all right, thank you very much, bob. >>> new at 11:03 right now, san mateo county authorities say they have just delivered gangs that terrorized for a few years. christie smith is live with details on operation su

objects, they described the color, one slynn dry cal, circular shape gray green object and one rectangular orange object. aviation experts say that, yes, they could be linked, particularly the orange. that could be life vests or whatever but we're waiting to see. that was announced yesterday but still frustratingly there was no visual sighting from the sea despite the fact there was an australian warship in the zone. it was in that area for about four hours where the sighting was made. the royal australian air force actually dropped flares but no sighting. the australian defense minister interestingly said, john, that even though the ship was close to that zone where the. are -- raaf saw that debris, it gives you the idea of challenges they're facing and what the meaning of close in an area so vast and so remote actually means. >>>. >> andrew stevens bringing us an update on the search out of perth and the challenges they are facing. andrew, thank you. >>> what is interesting about what andrew is saying is there does seem to be a chang of tone we're hearing coming out of the australians. w

a gray or green circular object and an orange rectangular object. we don't yet know if they're from the plane. searchers marked the area with smoke flares. for a week, search and rescue teams have been guided by grainy satellite images, combing this remote stretch of sea, bigger than california. we've been with them. flying low over choppy seas and heavy fog. once they find the debris field, the heavy wreckage is liable to be miles away and miles down. finding it will require submersible drones, like these. >> the computer models that we have done shows that the debris has moved almost 500 kilometers away from where it will have originated. >> reporter: because it's been so long? >> it's been so long. and the currents are quite strong. >> reporter: tonight, an australian warship is headed in to collect and confirm the possible debris. if you thought the first part of this search was long and difficult, get ready because the second part, they'll be flying blind on the ocean floor, deeper than where the "titanic" sank. diane? >> all right, david, than

they were described as a green, a gray, circular-shaped object and an orange rectangular-shaped object. there was an australian, maybe defense vessel, actually in the zone when they made that sighting. it steamed towards where they had reported it. the airplanes actually dropped flares in there, but they still actually couldn't find it after four hours of searching, so frustrating for them, and then the bad weather set in, so bad in fact that it actually drove this australian warship off the target zone. they had to stay about 80 miles away to get out of the worst of the weather. gives you an idea how bad the conditions are, the defense minister here calling them horrendous. but also, we heard from the deputy chief of the armed forces in australia as well today, just telling us about how far they are along this search. it was quite a disappointing statement for the families, given that their hopes have been raised that there may be some conclusion to this. he put it in context. this is what he had to say. >> we're not searching for a needle in a haystack, we're still trying to define w
