Ilulissat is home to the Ilulissat Icefjord, where some of the largest and most active glaciers on Earth produce enormous icebergs that break off and begin their journey into the North Atlantic. Many of the icebergs seen here originate from the Sermeq Kujalleq, one of the fastest-moving glaciers in the world. This timelapse highlights the scale, structure, and slow drift of a giant iceberg as it passes through Arctic waters—an ongoing process that shapes coastlines and contributes to global ocean systems. 📡 Camera: AfarTV Iceberg Cam 📍 Ilulissat, Greenland 📅 Filmed: April 13
