What dictionary are you using? I just looked it up and MW’s definition of “missing” is “absent” or “lost” or “needed or expected but not included”. Dictionary.com says “absent, not found, or lost” and “lacking”. Wiktionary says “Not able

They were missing. Then they used GPS tags to locate them. That’s why the article is titled “ A Million Falcons Went Missing. Here’s How They Were Found ”. Something was unknown, then we used sensors to solve the mystery. Wild, isn’t it?
