Retired Aussie Air Chief Marshal, Angus Houston, has just held a press conference stating that Australian Defence Vessel Ocean Shield has “detected something”, calling them “acoustic events”, but he said he could not give out any details, yet.
Houston also refused to comment on China’s claims of picking up ping signals. He hinted that the signal was “fleeting” which raises doubts, but then in answering a reporter’s question admitted that the Chinese lead was the “most promising” so far. That’s because the Chinese picked up the signal a second time, later in the day.
