The larger objects could be from container ships, they could be from docks, boats. all those things could be part of this confounding litter in the ocean. >> thank you very much. certainly a real wake up call. still to come final partial ping from the plane. why its the key to the investigation. and was it a suicide mission? that is the big question for investigators tonight. nascar is about excitement. but tracking all the action and hearing everything from our marketing partners, the media and...

Like a pressure cooker here that we saw boil over in beijing with that protest, piers? >> david mckenzie, thank you very much. breaking news tonight on this investigation. the revelation of what theyre calling a final partial ping from flight 370. here to explain what it means is john ostrow of the "wall street journal." john, youre reporting tonight about this partial ping. how significant do the investigators think it is? can you hear me, john? i think we lost contact. richard quest, you kno...

With it. they will probably be look at the flight simulators work out. what was inside those deleted files. every time we ask in a press conference here, can you share the cargo manifest with us? can you tell us about the investigation into every single passenger and crew member on board? they tell us thats where the investigation we cannot share it at this time. john. >> i read that the police chief there is concerned it may jeopardize the investigation saying this could take up to a year for a...

Nearly as much information as it was only a few minutes after the most recent ping. we know it was in a specific spot, then we have a short span of time. >> theyre splitting up now, about 12 planes flying. we understand theyre flying to the west, to the west of the search area. and then you have the ships coming in from the other direction. explain that. >> you asking me? >> yes. >> well, like we said, theres a huge potential area that this could be spread out over. from the original krach site,...

Handshake. the satellites had been making them at regular intervals with the flight for hours and hours, but at the very end, there was a partial handshake. what does that indicate to you? >> to me, its the most exciting piece of information weve had in a long time. that last ping, they had been regular intervals. then nine minutes after, it pings again. that tells me that the sat back in the back of the aircraft, top part of the aircraft, its sending out this signal. it talks with the satellite...

Time, but its got holes. >> this is a morbid thought that popped into my mind. if the pilot and co-pilot were compromised even with the oxygen mask, et cetera, is it possible it was a couple hours before it ended up in the ocean, could the people in the cockpit be compromised and people in the cabin okay? >> thats a great question. i very much doubt it. if something effected the cockpit, it would effect the cabin by the way the airplane is designed. in simple terms, the cockpit actually gets mos...

They do not know what that means, but they do know that at 9:15 when the plane was scheduled to ping again, it did not. listen to authorities. >> sometime between 00: 11 utc and 00:50 utc, the satellite was no longer able to communicate with the aircraft. >> the plane likely hit the water between 8:19 local time and 9:15 when they did not get that final ping, megyn. thats a very wide gap for a plane traveling that fast. did the plane plunge into the water or did it glide into the water? a 777 ca...

Eight minutes after the last ping, that would be unusual and against pattern. what on board the aircraft could cause that ping eight minutes after the last ping? >> were not really sure, and im not sure about the ping. all these things have come up, we have this partial information, bits and pieces of information. lets say its in that area. again, were not -- i dont think it narrows it down a great deal even if it was. maybe something broke, maybe it wasnt a ping, maybe it was an echo. this whol...

Do. >> you expect the president to say, mitt was right, i was wrong. next? >> then hed be right. >> i know. that would have been interesting. >> regional power. >> they wrote that the president was dissing russia rather than not answering about mitt romney. heather nauert is here, she has the news. >> were looking at some rough weather in australia off the coast of perth where the search is underway. we have breaking developments in the missing malaysia plane. officials say brand-new satellite i...

Back to a point you made earlier. its also possible that even the impact of the plane could have caused this ping? >> yeah. its hard to say for sure, of course. but theres any number of scenarios you could come up with that would sort of reactivate that box in some way to have it try to communicate with that satellite. whatever it was it was probably some sort of power surge. what would cause that? i think the first suspect would be the flame out of the engine. thats not going to be the exact sp...
