A detail from the Vessel Finder website, showing some of the ships being held up by the grounding of the Japanese ship Ever Given. Each bubble is a ship!
The large yellow bubble just northeast of the Egyptian city of Suez shows the position of Ever Given at 1:48 on March 26.
The other bubbles near the stranded ship are tugboats involved in the rescue attempt.
A closely cropped image of Ever Given showing the positions of eight smaller ships.
Ever Given has moved along, but here's a reminder of the crisis.
We feel that we were there for a few minutes - virtually, of course - just like everything else!
