Summary

Description
English: Satelite image showing the floating front of the Pine Island Glacier in West-Antarctica. An 18 mile long crack, discovered in October 2011, is running across the glacier. The eventually created ice berg will have an expected area of ca. 900 square kilometers (340 square miles). The image was made by NASA's Terra Satellite on November 13th, 2011.
Deutsch: Satellitenbild, das die schwimmende Gletscherfront des Pine-Island Gletscher in der Westantarktis zeigt. Ein rund 30 km langer Riss der im Oktober 2011 entdeckt wurde zieht sich fast über die gesamte Breite des Gletschers. Es wird erwartet, dass der letztlich dabei entstehende Eisberg eine Fläche von rund 900 km² haben wird. Die Aufnahme stammt vom NASA Terra Satellit und wurde am 13. November 2011 gemacht.
