US shadows Korean ship

THE United States is monitoring a North Korean vessel that appears to be suspicious, a US intelligence source said today.

"It isn't clear what it's carrying. It's a suspicious vessel," the source said. The "CBS Evening News," quoting US intelligence sources, reported that a North Korean ship possibly carrying military equipment banned by UN sanctions had left that country for an unknown destination.

The report said the ship was being tracked while US officials tried to determine what was on board and what to do about it. No other details were available.

Just curious... does this mean they are tracking it physically with our ships, or just monitoring it on radar and what not. I am not a techy or military expert, so I apologize for the rookie question.
