A massive iceberg that passed dangerously close to a remote village in western Greenland last week was large enough to be seen from space.

The European Space Agency released a photo Tuesday taken on July 9 from ESA’s Sentinel-2 satellites. The image clearly shows several large icebergs off the coast near the village of Inaarsuit, including the massive one that had villagers on edge.

The 11-million-ton iceberg caused alarm when scientists warned that a large chunk of the iceberg could break off and cause a tsunami to hit the village that is home to about 170 people. The warning prompted authorities to move some residents to higher ground.

Over the weekend, higher tides associated with the new moon coupled with high winds pushed the iceberg away from Inaarsuit's harbor without incident.
