Iceberg Larger Than State Of Rhode Island Splits From Antarctica

A massive iceberg, A-76, has broken off from the Antarctic ice shelf, becoming the largest in the world. It measures 15 miles wide and 106 miles long, covering nearly 1,700 square miles. The iceberg calved from the Rhone ice shelf into the Weddell Sea. The US National Ice Center, with the Navy and Coast Guard, is tracking it. Geologists state it won't raise sea levels as it was already floating and is not linked to climate change. However, global warming remains a concern. Scientists will monitor its slow movements.

How large is the iceberg in square miles, and how does it compare to the size of Manhattan?
