Once again, the Brunt iceshelf has some breaking news:
as these two satellite images show, a new iceberg detached from the shelf on 22 May.
This is the the third significant iceberg calving from this region in the past four years.

Breaking news - literally..!
There’s been a surprise #iceberg calving on the #Brunt Ice Shelf in Antarctica, near Halley Research Station.
The berg is about the size of the Isle of Wight or Las Vegas. A section broke off at a 90° angle from a chasm called the “Halloween Crack”. pic.twitter.com/Ot6uiQOaiv

This is getting crazy now. #Iceberg #A23a has been stuck in its pirouette above a Taylor column since early April. It hasn't budged. How long can this continue? What will it require to break out of the dizzy cycle - a big winter storm? Calling @oceans_and_ice. What's happening? pic.twitter.com/3yyYE149q2

Brunt Ice Shelf has now calved 3 large icebergs in a little over 3 years. The animation shows past calving events from Sentinel-1 and Monday's 373 square km calving from the Suomi NPP VIIRS. Further animation to follow when Sentinel-1 captures a new image. pic.twitter.com/nWHa3SDQVn
