Flight Over a Rectangular Iceberg in the Antarctic

Показать описание

Operation IceBridge is NASA’s longest-running aerial survey of polar ice. During the survey, designed to assess changes in the ice height of several glaciers draining into the Larsen A, B and C embayments, IceBridge senior support scientist Jeremy Harbeck saw a very sharp-angled, tabular iceberg floating among sea ice just off of the Larsen C ice shelf. A photo of the iceberg (seen at right) was widely shared after it was posted on social media.

That looks very interesting, like someone cut it with a laser.

NASA can you show us the laser cutter you used to make this iceberg?

You've got to have complete confidence in your craft because failure would most probably be fatal. Great video.

Only NASA would call them icebergs "perfectly flat icebergs"

Nothing unusual for the well educated well traveled person.

I've always been fascinated with Antarctica, AKA the bottom of the globe since I was a kid. I live in the Northern Hemisphere though, but it's definitely on my bucket list.

I remember this being made! It was a project by college students, they covered it in a reflective tarp to prevent it from melting.

When we think of icebergs, we generally think of something that could sink the Titanic rather than something the size of a small country...

great video, showing us things we know very little about. Nice narrative and narration.

What a thrill to be the pilot of this plane. Fantastic views. The volume of the music is too loud and washes out the narration. Go NASA!
