Here’s a clip from an interesting article featured on the New York Times website this week about life aboard one of the world’s largest cargo ships. The video above and article highlights Maersk Triple-E’s and life aboard MV Mary Maersk, the third ship in the 18,000 TEU Triple-E class. Maersk Line has ordered a total of 20 of the ships to be delivered by the end of 2015.

A version of the article also appears in print on October 5, 2014, on page BU4 of the New York edition with the headline: Aboard a Cargo Colossus.
