A huge block of ice started to break in pieces and detach from Antarctica. Science men consider this another prove of global warming and say that this is the biggest block of ice they have ever seen detaching from Antarctica.
Professor Jim Elliott from BAS says that big pieces of ice are blown away from the block, exactly like an explosion.
