A big iceberg approximately the size of London has broken away from the Antarctic, close to Britain's Halley research station. Sensors on the surface of the Brunt Ice Shelf confirmed the split late on Sunday GMT. “Our glaciologists and operations teams have been anticipating this event,” Professor Dame Jane Francis, the director of the British Antarctic Survey, said in a statement.
