caption_attribution_description: English: Natural-colour satellite image of the ice island that calved off the Petermann Glacier in north-western Greenland on August 5, 2010. Although slivers of ice have loosened around its edges, the ice island has largely retrained its original shape. The island, which has rotated counter-clockwise since the calving, also retains the crevassed structure of the Petermann Glacier; both the glacier and the ice island sport rippled surfaces. Thin longitudinal cracks appear on the ice island surface, and wider lateral cracks push in from the island’s sides. An uneven line of pools, medium blue in colour, runs down the length of the ice island. Along the glacier’s new front, some smaller icebergs appear to have broken free, and ice fragments litter the water surface between the ice island and the glacier. Also visible in this image are multiple small glaciers that feed the Petermann, flowing down to the massive glacier from the north-eastern side of the fjord.

  In 1956, an iceberg in the Antarctic was reported to be an estimated 333 kilometres long and 100 kilometres wide. Recorded before the era of satellite photography, the 1956 iceberg's estimated dimensions are less reliable.
