Summary edit

Description
English: This image, acquired on 16 March by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellites shows iceberg A76a. A76a is one of the largest icebergs in the world. After its calving in 2021, it continued its journey in the Antarctic Ocean. Oceanic currents have recently been carrying it closer to South Georgia, and it is now only approximately 600 km away from the island. The iceberg is roughly 130 km long and 27 km wide, making it slightly smaller than the island of Majorca.
