The search for the missing Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 is still on, and authorities, in an attempt to give a better understanding on what really happened the day the aircraft has gone missing, decided to release confidential data from the raw satellite transmission retrieved by experts. However, instead of shedding light to the families of the missing passengers and crew, the newly released data have led to more confusion on the bizarre case.

On Tuesday the Malaysian government alongside Inmarsat, the global satellite communications company, released the retrieved raw satellite transmission data from the missing Malaysian Airlines Flight 370. The said info provided more evidence that the plane may have indeed crashed into the Indian Ocean. Aside from that the transmission data also hinted that the flight was headed south and was apparently running out of fuel when the incident took place.

The release of the confidential                                                                                                                                                                 data was reportedly due to the pressure from the family and relatives of the mostly Chinese passengers on-board the Malaysian flight. The Chinese government was also part of the force that asked the Malaysian government and Inmarsat to release the said data.

According to New York Daily News, Malaysia's prime minister, Najib Razak, was on his way to China for an official visit to the county when the Malaysian Department of Civil Association allowed the release of the transmission records.

"This is consistent with satellite communication equipment on the aircraft powering up following a power interruption," the Australian Transport Safety Bureau said in an issued separate statement. "The interruption in electrical supply may have been caused by fuel exhaustion."

Meanwhile, instead of getting enlightened over what really caused the missing Malaysian Airlines Flight 370 to vanish, it seems that the families and relatives of the missing passengers and crew are not really impressed of the Malaysian government's move to justify things.

"What help will publicizing this data provide toward finding the airplane?" One of the Chinese relatives, Wang Le, asked. "This kind of data is too technical for family members, we cannot understand it, and we also don't know whether it's real or fake."

Satellite communication consultant based in Menlo Park, Calif. Tim Farrar opined that the raw data are very important since they support calculations made by Inmarsat and the governments involved on where the missing plane's wreckage could be. Last time, it was reported that a Boeing 777-200 crashed into the eastern Indian Ocean after making a U-turn over the Gulf of Thailand, and since then authorities believed that the said craft is indeed the missing Malaysian Airlines jet.

Despite failing to find credible evidence such as floating debris of the plane after the initial underwater and air search and rescue operations, investigators are still confident that the Malaysian jet had crashed into a remote stretch of the southern Indian Ocean, at around 25 nautical miles from the area where the final ping transmission was located.
