NASA released a
new image on Friday showing a large, shattered chunk of iceberg that broke off from one of Antarctica’s main glaciers earlier this year.
The
fragmented piece of iceberg called B-44 calved from Pine Island
Glacier—the continent’s fastest melting glacier—in September. A
satellite image taken on December 15, around midnight local time, by
NASA’s Landsat 8 offers an up-close view of one of the many fragments
that shattered from the glacier.
