The world’s largest iceberg is on its way north, decades after breaking off from the Antarctic ice shelf, according to the British Antarctic Survey.
The iceberg, scientifically known as A23a, broke away from the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf in Antarctica in 1986. However, it remained stuck to the sea floor for decades.
