"Stunning Space Photos Capture Majestic Icebergs from the ISS"

European Space Agency astronaut Andreas Mogensen, commander of Expedition 70 on the International Space Station, has captured stunning photos of giant icebergs floating in the South Atlantic. As Earth continues to warm, more ice is breaking off glaciers and ice sheets, contributing to rising sea levels. The photos highlight the visible part of the icebergs floating on the ocean surface, as well as the submerged parts and ocean waves breaking around them. Mogensen's observations serve as a reminder of the impact of climate change and the potential disappearance of low-lying areas like the Maldives due to rising sea levels.
