The Ice Of Antarctica
Iceberg off Antarctic Peninsula
This enormous iceberg sits in the open water between the Antarctic Peninsula and South Georgia Island. It’s longer and taller than the 200-person, ocean-going vessel from which this picture was taken. Icebergs are classified into six official sizes: growler (car size), bergy bit (small house size), small, medium, large and very large. A very large iceberg is at least 670 feet long and 240 feet high. (Photo Credit: Jordan Spielman)
