[:ja]宇宙飛行士がISSから撮影した南極付近の氷塊です。棺桶型の氷塊として、NASAがハロウィーンに合わせて公開しました。場所はサウスサンドウィッチ諸島とサウスジョージア島の近傍です。この氷塊は南極海から北上し、南大西洋に移動しましたが、気温の上昇に伴い、融解するとみられます。

Astronaut on board ISS the iceberg near Antarctica. NASA posted this spooky, coffin-shaped iceberg on the Haloween day. This iceberg was spotted in the South Atlantic between South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands. Icebergs like this are known to melt rapidly as they make their way north into warmer waters.
