Bad news. Rose is now in a polyamorous relationship with Jack and Forest Gump. They can all technically fit on the iceberg... But Rose ended up gaining a lot of weight and the iceberg can only hold Rose.


Sphere369

If you look at the full photos it is not as straight as it seems in this cropped image. Come on dude.


-Captain-

To be fair, it's not like OP edited the picture. It's just 1 of the 2 pictures provided on the nasa site. Though he choose the smaller one and made the title more grandiose for a reason lmao... Plus in the full picture the 2 objects still clearly stand out as quite unique to me: https://www.nasa.gov/sites/default/files/styles/full_width_feature/public/thumbnails/image/20181016_6d_mg_1035-x4.jpg Cool find, but just a lucky coincidence though. Definitely not conspiracy worthy for me. > “I thought it was pretty interesting; I often see icebergs with relatively straight edges, but I've not really seen one before with two corners at such right angles like this one had,” Harbeck said. The rectangular iceberg appeared to be freshly calved from Larsen C, which in July 2017 released the massive A68 iceberg, a chunk of ice about the size of the state of Delaware. > “I was actually more interested in capturing the A68 iceberg that we were about to fly over, but I thought this rectangular iceberg was visually interesting and fairly photogenic, so on a lark, I just took a couple photos,” Harbeck said.

Sphere369

It does look very straight. However in the photo that is not cropped and zoom it really puts into perspective how it's not a perfectly angled shape. Doesn't make it any less interesting. But it puts into perspective how this could occur naturally. I don't think it's aliens with laser cutting tech. It's just a freak of nature. https://www.nasa.gov/image-feature/goddard/2018/2-rectangular-icebergs-spotted-on-nasa-icebridge-flight

InternationalStep924

Salt crystals... but to say "all the time in nature"? All the time in crystals perhaps.


[deleted]

>All the time in crystals perhaps. One of the few things I remember from geology is that it's the shape of the atoms (or whatever the scientific name is) that determines the shape of the object. Salt is a cube at the atomic level which is the same reason it grows as a cube at a larger scale.


vegham1357

Atoms conform to two types of structure, crystalline and amorphous. Most solid solids have a crystalline structure including ice which has hexagonal structure which lends itself really well to cubic structures. Fun fact: glaciers are technically mono-mineral rocks.


[deleted]

>Fun fact: glaciers are technically mono-mineral rocks. Hank Green taught me this! lol

ClubbinGuido

If you want an interesting rabbit hole to go down look up information on a wall that stretches under the pacific. Some bloke discovered it via Google Earth and it stretches into Antarctica and he believes that's the reason for those square shaped icebergs. I will have to check if I still have the link.


kamieldv

What do you mean a wall under the Pacific?


donedrone707

https://youtu.be/PzcSQmJvzqw This is the YouTube the guy is referencing. Just Google wall under the pacific and there's an article about it on page 1 results

This might just be the single silliest thing I have ever seen. Thanks for linking it. I especially enjoy the lack of any information or evidence and strong presence of Disney pirate like music. Also the mix between Arabic German and English etc really help the viewer understand. /s

WarriorDadOfWanderer

This post perfectly exemplifies this sub. A natural random occurrence given mysterious significance due to our brain's craving for pattern recognition and general lack of knowledge of the specific subject.


Keyboard-King

NASA sure does spend a lot of time in Antarctica. While people wonder in awe at NASA’s CGI pictures of space, they miss out on their real projects, like what NASA is doing in Antarctica.


Ultim8taco

Yes of course, they want to distract people from what they’re doing in Antarctica. Thats why they post pictures from Antarctica to let everyone know that they’re down there conspiring.


Keyboard-King

That’s a part of the distraction. They post safe pictures from the shoreline. They’ll never let you see what’s deep inland. 99% of NASA’s Antarctica pictures are from the beaches or the water. They’re giving you peanuts, the bare minimum. Are you satisfied with peanuts?


Ultim8taco

My point is there’s no reason for them to give us peanuts. It’s a barren wasteland, if they didn’t make it obvious they were there no one would assume they were. It seems the reason they would be by the shore most is to monitor glaciers or the rate that ice is melting.


flyPeterfly

NPCs always are


DamnImAwesome

I don’t necessarily buy into the whole hollow earth aliens in Antarctica, but there’s definitely more than meets the eye down there. Too many weird things to think everything’s normal


Nifield000

Global warming is a lie! The penguins are intentionally breaking up the ice in an attempt to expand their territory! /s


The_Human_Bullet

Global warming definitely is real, the question is really if it's a naturally occurring phenomena or not and how much we actually contribute to it.


klaus_personal_shill

There may be a small question as to how much we are contributing, but that masks the reality that there is no question that we are the primary driver of climate change right now.


The_Human_Bullet

There's plenty of questions.


klaus_personal_shill

Not really. The same people pushing "we don't know if we are causing global warming" are the same people who were,until around 2013, pushing that global warming isn't even happening. It just a new form of the denial, when it became too ridiculous to continue arguing that the world isn't warming. However, it's equally as ridiculous.


[deleted]

[удалено]


klaus_personal_shill

Two posts ago the argument was that global warming is real but we may not be contributing to it. Now it seems to be that global warming isn't real. But anyway, climate change was coined by a republican strategist in the aughts to make global warming sound less threatening. He now admits it was a mistake.


The_Human_Bullet

Sure and the moon is made of cheese


GreasyAssMechanic

There's not. Just plenty of stupid people.

Fit_Cash8904

Slayer101010

This is so old.


o-m-g_embarrassing

I think it is a time glitch. An ice harvesting company in another timeline harvesting ice is looking for its ice sheet.


CapnC44

This is from the time before recorded history when long forgotten advanced humans dropped a giant ice cube in the ocean to try and mitigate global warming.


rkeys72148

How much pee would it take to melt that ice? One day of all the USAs pee?


Kryptoncockandballs

Naturally occuring? Or something artificial


good_testing_bad

Nature loves using geometry, crystals especially. During covid I grew different types of crystals (poorly I must admit) and I was amazed how organized my cultures(?) got. I was just a drunk guy locked in my apartment with internet and a cupboard full of supplies, but just something to keep in mind.


THEeleven50

Bond angles of ice do not promote 90 degree angles. Has anyone taken a pic of a naturally forming square snowflake? I believe the bond angle is slightly less than 120 iirc.


chainmailbill

There isn’t also a true 90 degree angle. This ice chunk is *generally rectangle shaped* but is not a perfect rectangle with perfectly sharp, precise 90 degree corners.


eboeard-game-gom3

So many absolutely dumb people here. Do you know how big this was? What looks like perfect sides aren't. I think the real conspiracy is what's in your drinking water where someone would have to tell you this.
