B15A Causing problems again

Back on Dec. 16th I mentioned an iceberg that was terrorizing penquins and causing some difficulties for our Antarctic researchers.

Well, B15A is at it again, this time it's threatening a glacier (actually the ice tongue of a glacier) with catastrophic destruction.

Ok, Ok, I'm putting too much dramatic emphasis on this event. However, it's kinda cool to watch this huge iceberg running amok around down there wreaking havoc, terrorizing penquins and giving everyone what could prove to be a spectacular show, again and again. It seems that if the model holds true and the collision does occur it'll probably happen again and again, until B15A is obliterated.

Click the links above, watch the animated GIF's and marvel at the intricate Antarctic dance. The big .tif files at the bottom of the article are cool too.
