What happened next to the giant Larsen C iceberg?

Scientists have revealed exactly how the trillion-tonne A68 iceberg broke free of the Antarctic ice shelf last month - and say it has spawned smaller icebergs

The fate of the giant iceberg that broke free from Antarctica's Larsen C ice shelf last month has been revealed.
