"Ghost Ship" Goes Missing

And now for something completely different....

The Daily Mail has the following story:

A rat-infested and toxic Russian cruise ship cast adrift in the Atlantic Ocean has apparently vanished. 

The MV Lyubov Orlova - named after a Soviet actress - broke free in January when it was being tugged to be scrapped. 

It was being tracked by US intelligence officials but has not been seen since March and there are fears it has sunk.
The luxury liner was being towed to the Dominican Republic from Newfoundland, Canada, when it slipped away as the crew on board the towing ship battled howling winds and 10ft waves to try in vain to reconnect the towing line. 

The so-called 'ghost ship' was located briefly in February as it floated aimlessly about 500 miles off the coast of Ireland.


Then, in March, the Canadian Coast Guard reported that one of the ship's emergency radio beacons, which activate after hitting the water or another object, flashed a location almost 800 miles off Newfoundland, according to the Vancouver Sun.
With no further sightings, some are speculating the ship has sunk.
