  • Out in the endless grey of the Atlantic Ocean, a vessel drifts alone. The only sound in the dining room is the wind. The only smell in the galley is rust. The cabins that once held 100 passengers lie empty; there's not a soul aboard. Along the bow, a row of drip-stained letters spells its name: Lyubov Orlova. The Orlova is a modern-day ghost ship. It disappeared on 4 Feb 2013, en route to the Dominican Republic, without power or crew. The loss triggered a global hunt involving coastguards hoping to find the ship before it ran ashore or struck an oil rig; the coordinators of a new satellite system with a point to prove: and even a team of would-be treasure seekers. Here, Fisher talks about whether technology can solve the mystery of the Lyubov Orlova.
