| 0:00.0 | Good morning and welcome to Kid News. I'm Tori. Today is Monday, September 8th, 2025. |
| 0:07.2 | And we begin with the king of all icebergs giving up its throne. A23A, once the biggest in the world and described as colossal stretching from horizon to horizon. |
| 0:18.9 | A game of throne-style wall of ice that towers above a ship, |
| 0:23.0 | is slowly but surely breaking apart. |
| 0:26.1 | The Berg was part of West Antarctica's Filchner-Rone shelf before naturally splitting or calving in 1986. |
| 0:33.9 | It stayed pretty close to home until last year when it floated up to South Georgia Island, which |
| 0:39.3 | the Associated Press refers to as the place icebergs go to die. A23A was still as big as |
| 0:45.9 | Rhode Island at the time, but is now down to the size of Houston. By this November, says University |

| 1:45.6 | That could change. The board of directors at Tesla is dangling a carrot in front of Elon Musk's face |
| 1:51.5 | to get him to focus more on the company and less on politics. Mr. Musk is already the world's |
| 1:57.3 | richest man, but if he meets a dozen new benchmarks, he'll be astronomically |
| 2:02.4 | richer with a pay package worth a staggering $1 trillion. Among the milestones he needs to reach, |
| 2:08.9 | deliver millions more vehicles, boost self-driving subscriptions, and get one million robots |
| 2:15.0 | and robotaxies into circulation. |
