The colossus iceberg that split from Antarctica's Larsen C ice shelf on 12 July 2017 is now in the open waters of the South Atlantic near the South Orkney Islands, about 1,050 km from its birthplace. Having lost two chunks of ice, this record berg is a little less huge than it once was—and now that it is in rougher waters, it may break up further.
