Alaskan Oil Spill
The Malaysian cargo ship Selendang Ayu drifts toward Unalaska Island near Unalaska, Alaska, in the Aleutian Island chain, Dec. 8, 2004, in this photo released by Unalaska Community Broadcasting. A Coast Guard cutter and three tug boats were unable to halt the 738-foot freighter's approach to shore, and the ship later ran aground and split apart.
