April 8, 2009. The Maersk Alabama is traveling to Kenya with a load of food aid when it’s attacked by pirates in the Indian Ocean. It’s the first time in two centuries that a US flagged ship has been seized by pirates. 
What happened next became an international sensation, and the subject of a blockbuster movie, starring Tom Hanks.
