Twice now, human ingenuity has reached toward a drifting vessel laden with hazardous cargo and come away empty-handed. Somewhere in contested waters, an uncontrolled ship continues its slow, indifferent passage — indifferent to the shipping lanes it threatens, the coastlines it approaches, and the authorities who watch it drift beyond the reach of conventional remedy. This is the ancient confrontation between human systems and the sea's refusal to cooperate, made newly urgent by the nature of what the vessel carries.
