Rocker Courtney Love has admitted that she’s “obsessed” with finding the missing Malaysian Airlines Flight 370, and even thinks she may have found it.
In a post she shared on Facebook and Twitter on March 17, Love wrote:
I’m no expert but up close this does look like a plane and an oil slick. http://www.tomnod.com/nod/challenge/malaysiaairsar2014/map/128148 … prayers go out to the families #MH370 and its like a mile away Pulau Perak, where they “last” tracked it 5°39’08.5″N 98°50’38.0″E but what do I know?
A screenshot with crudely-written annotation points to a possible oil slick and the plane itself.
Tomnod is a website which asks readers to examine satellite images in hopes of determining the fate of Malaysian Airlines Flight 370. Tomnod responded to Love’s suggested location for the plane, writing, “Sometimes our eyes see what we want them to see: Just got note from our analysis team who has been digging in to map #128148. Although it is still an interesting clue, it is looking much more like the other boats operating in the region. Keep up the good work.”
Love told Daily Intelligencer, “Yeah I went to the satellite site and just uploaded tons and tons of pictures. I really doubt aliens took it. It’s got to be somewhere. I’m a little obsessive.” Her Facebook post has been liked and shared thousands of times, with comments ranging from supportive to sarcastic.
Love added, “I hope they find the plane, I pray they’re still alive, it’s sad and my heart goes out to all those involved. It’s the least I can do.”
