Do "icebergs" really exist on Europa?
In close-up pictures of Europa's "chaos" region, it can be seen that there are "blocks" or "plates" which have moved about relative to one another. These have informally been referred to as "icebergs," but this term is improperly suggestive, invoking visions of ice chunks floating in terrestrial polar seas. On Europa it would be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to melt from a subsurface ocean all the way to the surface.

Related QuestionsHow do icebergs form?
Iceberg FAQ'sThe Antarctic continent is 4000 meters or 13,120 feet high and contains 75 percent of the world's fresh water as ice. The ice is flowing from the highest point to the ocean but very slowly. The ice shelf responds to the tides in the area and twice each day it is lifted and sinks about a foot. This continuous flexing causes the ice shelf to break at a weak point decided by the ice shelf. If the ice did not flow off of Antarctica all the water in the oceans eventually would be deposited there.
