Vivid NASA satellite image of Gulf oil spill

Taken by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Aqua satellite June 12, the image shows the oil reaching the barrier islands of the Alabama coast and the Florida panhandle.

2. what is potential oil?

Is it that they don't know if there is oil there or that oil will potentially get there?

3. They can't tell if it's oil or not, probably because of the glare.
