Collision is at 1:28 EDT; you'll need to go back in the livestream.

The lights on the ship were going off and on, and it appeared to be smoking before hitting the bridge. Does not look like they had much control at the time.

  Could it be that the power going off and on, and the smoke came from a panicky attempt to recover from a mistake and avoid hitting that bridge ?
  - brazzy 3y ago
    The power going off is most likely what caused the accident.
  - jandrese 3y ago
    Most likely it was engine failure which caused the steering to lose power and allowed the ship to be pushed by the current.

  The dark smoke was most likely the diesel generator firing up to get some steering control back

Clip here, beginning at 1m23s, shows a (sped-up) edit of the ship approaching the bridge, with lights going out, on, and out again immediately prior to impact: <https://yewtu.be/watch?v=Cs6PrRiIHEw&t=1m23s https://yewtu.be/watch?v=Cs6PrRiIHEw&t=1m23s>

  Curious, is there a specific reason you put links between < and >?

    In markdown (or at least some flavors) that is the typical way of making a hyperlink actually a link. It's equivalent to [link](link) in markdown.

    It was the standard way to format URLs on Usenet. GP is at least 40 years old.
