Se parte glaciar

Item found on El Universal website: NASA reports that an iceberg the size of Luxembourg (how many people have any idea what size that is? I don't. I'll look around for a measurement: the CIA World Factbook puts it at 2, 586 square kilometers, slightly smaller than Rhode Island) crashed with the glacier Mertz in the east of Antarctica, loosening another iceberg of near-equal size.

 La NASA publicó imágenes del choque de un iceberg, del tamaño de Luxemburgo, con el borde del glaciar Mertz en el este de la Antártida y desprendió otro iceberg de tamaño casi igual | Ver nota
