The mystery of flight MH370: How can we track a smartphone anywhere on Earth, but a giant plane can go missing?
2014-03-10 14:34:05| Extremetech
Three days ago, Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 vanished from radar off the south coast of Vietnam in the South China Sea. 239 people were on board -- and at this point, it is presumed that they have all perished in some kind of disaster. For me, this is almost incomprehensible: Despite all of the awesome technology that mankind has developed, it's still possible for a Boeing 777-200 with 239 people on board to vanish. Surely, given the fact that we can track a damn smartphone anywhere on Earth down to a few meters, there's a better way of keeping track of missing aircraft?
