Massive Iceberg Takes 2 Hours to Drift Past the Camera | Iceberg Timelapse

Описание: A massive iceberg slowly drifts across the view of the AfarTV Iceberg Cam. In real time, it took about two hours for the iceberg to travel completely across the camera frame. This timelapse compresses that long, silent journey into a short sequence, revealing the steady motion of ocean currents carrying the iceberg through Arctic waters.

Icebergs like this typically break away from Greenland’s glaciers and can spend months or even years drifting through the North Atlantic before melting. Many of the icebergs seen on this camera originate from glaciers near Ilulissat, where one of the fastest-moving glacier systems on Earth continuously produces enormous blocks of floating ice.

The slow passage of this iceberg illustrates how powerful ocean currents are—moving thousands of tons of ice almost imperceptibly over time.

Watch closely to see the size, shape, and slow rotation of the iceberg as it glides past the camera.

You can experience this exact view in person by staying at this beautiful ocean front home in Ilulissat, Greenland. This home is located in one of the absolute best locations in Ilulissat, where you can hear the sea just outside as well as the smell of the ice from Ilulissat Isfjord.
