Caption: This spectacular view facing north of the southern extremities of Greenland (60 degrees north) shows numerous indentations, many of which contain small settlements. These are fjords carved by glaciers of the last ice age. Even today, the ice in the center of Greenland is 10,000 feet thick and great rivers of ice continuously flow toward the sea, where they melt or break off as icebergs-some of which can be seen floating offshore (left foreground).
