Michelle York+FollowIceberg A23a’s Wild Final Glow-UpA23a, once the world’s largest iceberg (yep, 3x bigger than NYC!), just got a dramatic send-off. After 40 years stuck in Antarctica, it finally broke free, spun around the ocean, almost crashed into a penguin haven, and is now melting into a streaky, electric-blue puddle. Satellite pics show it’s basically a giant, slushy mess now. Who knew icebergs could go out with such style? #Science #A23a #Iceberg00Share
Melvin Mosley+FollowIceberg Glow-Up: A-23A’s Blue GoodbyeDid you see this? The world’s former largest iceberg, A-23A, is literally turning blue as it melts away after 40 years! It started out twice the size of Rhode Island, but now it’s just a fraction of that and leaking so much meltwater, scientists say it could totally vanish in weeks. The blue color? That’s a sign it’s waterlogged and on its last legs. Nature’s wildest farewell tour! #Science #Iceberg #ClimateChange20Share
