Photo: Icicles hanging from an iceberg on Antarctica

Icicles drape the sides of an iceberg in the waters around Antarctica. Fifth-largest of the world's continents, Antarctica comprises 5,500,000 square miles (14,245,000 square kilometers) of snow-topped glaciers and ice sheets with less than 5 percent ice-free.
