The ship at the very least just to see what it is. but, you know, the -- things do not stand still in the ocean, unfortunately. that's what we're finding out. >> you know, nick, i want to get to you just real quick. now that we have pulled some of these objects from the sea, does that give an overall jolt of optimism? because as we're saying, and we can see, we've been talking about the ocean full of all kinds of debris that is mostly trash. >> yeah. i think, you know, certainly the search and rescue operation has been taking place for a while now. it's been hard to identify debris. the fact t...

Eyes, my concern is that the airplane impacted harder than we might have thought and fractured into a lot more pieces and maybe nothing is floating, adding to what was just said. >> respond to that for me, if you will, nick, quickly. >> yeah. i mean, i think certainly if we are talking about an area where a plane may have entered the water and certainly i can't speak to the dynamics of the entry and what impact that may have had on how the plane comes apart, but certainly there's a lot of composite materials, a lot of lightweight materials that are in the external cavity of the plane, so you w...

Effort. >> okay. les, this is for you. unless you want to weigh in. m.j. asks, the angle of the plane when it turned looks like it should have went west. or should have gone west. how did it start flying south? >> that's a great question. it's something that i think is confusing a lot of people. to me, i think what may have happened is if, indeed, there was a mechanical issue, it may have done something to begin the airplane's turn and may affect the flight controls. it's hard to see. that's part of the speculation. >> nick, this question is from catherine. she says would a plane crash in ocea...

H head into port just yet. they're going to continue searching until they find something that they think is from the plane. once they have found that, then they're likely to bring it here to free mantle which is the port in perth, and this will become the base of operations for the investigation. i don't know if you've ever seen one of those giant aircraft investigations but they try and literally piece the plane back together. that's what they're going to do once they find something. but they haven't found something yet, and so far, all of the sightings really have not turned out -- have not ...

Debris or lose things in the ocean because this water is moving at 3 or 4 miles per hour. it simply isn't doing that and it won't do that in this entire area here. what we have is the south gyre. the indian gyre right through here, indian ocean, around and around and around. this is something else that i'm a little bit concerned about, too, because if something falls into this gyre, it stays in the gyre for a long time until it sinks or gets onshore somewhere. around and around and around. all that debris goes. and some of the debris that we're seeing especially by the satellites may have been...
