AC360° created this animation to show how the oil spill has spread through the Gulf. These maps are all based on photographs taken by the NOAA from helicopters over the Gulf of Mexico. It shows how the oil has moved and shifted along with the currents and the winds in the Gulf from May 20th- June 14th.
That map is different from most of the maps we have seen which shows a predicted path for the oil in the Gulf. You can find the NOAA's maps and predictions below:
