WASHINGTON: The sheer number of images covering a large swath of ocean contributed to a delay in revealing what could be debris from the Malaysia Airlines jetliner that has been missing for nearly two weeks, a satellite image company said.
DigitalGlobe Inc, a Colorado-based company that collects imagery for the U.S. government and other countries, as well as private companies, confirmed Thursday that it had collected satellite images on March 16 that appeared to show debris that may be related to the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370.
