NASA has published a fascinating image of a snowflake that is floating in the Weddell Sea beyond Antarctica.

"The object is a fragmented part of a floating ice floe that is currently part of the land," says NASA, "The powdery spots and the flat surface"

Its edges are still sharp and are still not decayed.

Last week, NASA's NASA scientists fired the camera in a camera lens.


'Tubular Iceberg'

Such objects have also been reported before, and such ice blocks are referred to as "Tubular Iceberg".

Such icebergs are flat and durable, with the ends of the floating solid ice straps on land.

Experts on Glaciers at NAS and the University of Maryland, Kelly Brent, says that these types of ice form the body, such as growing furrows and stretching through the skin.

"As a result, such a component often takes a geometric shape," she said.


"Unusual feature"

"The unusual feature here is that it is much like a square."

The iceberg that broke into the picture broke down as it floated into small parts of the Antarctic peninsula, which is a floating, dense ice, Lanson C.

Certainly, it is difficult to say exactly how much the size of the photograph is, but the experts believe that it should be more than a mile.
