ONE BIG, BAD ICEBERG

(2 of 2)

The current superberg probably won't get that far, and it might not even leave Antarctica. On the other hand, it may not be the only new peril in southern waters. Says Thomson: "The ice adjacent to where the iceberg broke away has big north-south cracks--we could see these when we flew over." So another country-size slab of ice could be heading out to sea at just about any time.
