More than two years after Air France Flight 447 crashed in the Atlantic Ocean, a robotic submarine has finally discovered the exact location where the plane hit the ocean floor.

The crash, which occurred on New Years Day in 2009, was the worst in the history of the carrier. But the cause of the crash – and the aircraft itself – remained a mystery. Until now, that is.

Photos of the plane have been released by the Investigation and Analysis Bureau. Those, combined with the black box remaining in tact, may actually lead investigators to figure out what went wrong on that fateful day.
