World's largest iceberg filmed from space - Iceberg A23a. 🚨🧊 The world's colossus berg has been driven by winds and currents, giving it a spurt in recent months as it journeys past the northern tip of the Antarctic Peninsula. #iceberga23a #earthfromspace #satelliteimagery #satellites #iceberg | Sen

Satellite captures month-long journey of world’s largest iceberg

The world's largest iceberg is on the move again 🧊🇦🇶 The world's largest iceberg is on the move again after being stuck for 30 years in the Weddell Sea. A23a is 3900 square kilometres, making it over twice the size of Greater London and roughly three times the size of New York City. It is 400 metres thick and it once housed a Soviet research station. Satellite images from ESA's sentinal-1 satellite, processed by the British Antarctic Survey, track it as it crosses the Weddall Sea and passes t

The world's largest iceberg, A23a, is visible from our cameras on the ISS as it remains trapped and slowly spinning in one spot north of Antarctica. 🧊 #iceberg #iceberga23a #earthfromspace #spacestation #satelliteimagery | Sen

The largest iceberg in the world is stuck yet again. For more than 30 years, A23a was pinned in the Weddell Sea where it originally broke off. The mega iceberg— equivalent to the size of Rhode Island— recently started heading to open ocean, en route to reach warmer waters where it would rapidly melt and fragment. But a few months into A23a's journey, the iceberg became stuck in a spinning ocean vortex. Through satellite imagery, the British Antarctic Survey noticed the iceberg was maintaining a

World's largest iceberg, exceeding twice the size of Greater London, is resuming its journey after lingering on the outskirts of Antarctica. Known as Iceberg A23a, seen here beneath cloud cover, it detached from the Antarctic coastline in 1986 but remained immobile for over three decades due to a 350-meter-deep keel anchoring it in the Weddell Sea. Gradual melting, culminating in 2020, finally enabled the iceberg to float once more, initially drifting slowly before being propelled northward by c
