The search for missing flight MH370 has taken a dramatic turn with possible debris spotted by a satellite.
This is what we know:
:: Possible debris from missing flight MH370 seen in the southern Indian Ocean 1,550 miles southwest of Perth.
:: The objects were of "reasonable size", with one about 24 metres in length and the other about five metres long.
:: Satellite images of the objects were dated March 16 and the debris will have moved since then.
:: Four long-range surveillance planes have been sent to search the area where the objects were spotted.
The objects were spotted by a satellite :: They are two Royal Australian Air Force Orions, a New Zealand Orion and a US Navy Poseidon aircraft.
:: One of the Australian planes has been unable to locate the objects, and cloud and rain have limited the visibility.
:: John Young of Australian Maritime Safety Authority said the objects "are relatively indistinct on the imagery ... but those who are experts indicate they are credible sightings."
:: Mr Young added: "The indication to me is of objects that are a reasonable size and probably awash with water, moving up and down over the surface."
:: A Norwegian merchant ship has arrived at the site to help with the operation.
:: The depth of the ocean in the latest search area is around 5,000 metres - twice as deep as where the Air France plane was found in the Atlantic Ocean.
:: The area is in the far south of the southern air corridor - one of two massive zones investigators have been focusing on.
:: The Australian naval vessel HMAS Success, which is capable of retrieving any debris, is some days away.
