Iceberg Twice the Size of New York City Is About to Break off Antarctica.
A chasm and a crack on the Brunt Ice Shelf in Antarctica are creeping closer and closer to one another, and when the two finally meet, a slab of ice twice the size of New York City will break away and float out to sea.

But when they do, the iceberg that forms in the Weddell Sea won't be the largest to orbit Antarctica. In fact, it might not even make the historical top 20. Its size is not what makes it noteworthy - it's what the break itself says about the natural process of iceberg calving, the way climate change might be destabilizing other ice shelves like Brunt, and how the movement could jeopardize the critical scientific research human residents have conducted there for more than 60 years.
