Animation of Giant Iceberg Collision as Seen From Space

Last year's top stories included two based on images of ice from space: a mysterious ice circle in Lake Baikal, and a gallery of images of glaciers taken by satellites and astronauts. So it's no surprise that this animation of colliding ice bergs is among the post popular stories this year.

The collision in early February of the 60-mile-long B-9B iceberg with the protruding tongue of the Mertz Glacier in East Antarctica is captured here in a series of satellite radar images. The crash created a second massive iceberg nearly 50 miles long and 25 miles wide, named C-28. The name means that it’s the 28th glacier since 1976 that has broken off from the quadrant of Antarctica that faces Australia.
