Schwartz Range
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Schwartz Range () is a range of mountains trending in a NE-SW direction, standing 17 miles southwest of Edward VIII Bay, in Antarctica. It was discovered in November 1954 by R. Dovers and Georges Schwartz during an ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) sledging journey to Edward VIII Bay. Named by the Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA) for Schwartz, who was French Observer with ANARE at Mawson Station in 1954.
