the decade.

SYDNEY, May 23 ˜  Sophisticated
satellite imaging equipment launched into space two months ago is beaming
back ultra-sharp pictures of the greatest breakup of Antarctic ice in modern
times, say Australian scientists. Technology in the European observation
satellite ENVISAT, launched on March 1 from French Guyana in South America,
is taking pictures from 800 km (500 miles) in space in sufficient detail
to clearly show objects no bigger than a suburban house.
