Iceberg strikes Antarctica
Scientists for some time had been expecting the B-15A iceberg to strike the Drygalski ice tongue, according to the European Space Agency. Last week, the waiting ended. On Friday, the ESA captured this image of the iceberg breaking off a piece of the ice tongue that's 5 kilometers long. The ESA says that maps of Antarctica should be altered to reflect the change.
