The iceberg breaketh

 

Update on the travels and travails of Iceberg A68A.  Here's a satellite view from January 27, where you can see the big piece and the primary fragment (colloquially named "the finger"):













After I captured this, I saw the following article, but I haven't confirmed visibility with the satellite images yet.  It's clearly visible in radar;  the article has some superb radar shots.
