A member of the Coast Guard flying a mission over the Gulf of Mexico July 4 overlooks the "A Whale," an enormous vessel that was recently deployed to assist with collecting product from the Mississippi Canyon oil spill site. This Taiwanese ship is 10 stories high and as longer than three football fields, and its manufacturer claims it is capable of skimming more than 21 million gallons of oil everyday.
