  What seems amazing is that it isn’t covered in more sand and sediment. It would take such a small thickness of covering to hide it from view forever.

  The odds of this seem astronomically small.

  Speaking of finding, we still haven't found a significant trace of MH370. T_T

  Before 9/11 it was the most traumatic incident.

  News showed that footage so many thousands of times over so many weeks, months, that I still hear the phrase in my head sometimes and I am really, really uncomfortable watching rocket launches even decades later.

  Does such a piece emit any radiation?

  Now Dexter's really worried...
