Timelapse satellite imagery captured between September and November of this year shows the world's former largest iceberg, A23a, continuing to break apart in the southern Atlantic Ocean. The imagery was released by the Cooperative Institute for Research in the Atmosphere (CIRA) and shows A23a drifting north of South Georgia. On November 14, the US National Ice Center said the iceberg had an area of 439.26 square nautical miles. The new largest iceberg, D15a, measures 895.36 square nautical miles

In 1986, a massive 9,000 km² block of ice broke away from the Filchner Ice Shelf in Antarctica, creating this frozen giant that was larger than some countries. Nearly 400 meters thick, it remained stuck to the seafloor for more than 30 years before finally drifting back into the open ocean. Today it still carries enough ancient ice to supply the entire planet with water for a year. A drifting mountain of ice, olde
