Horne Nunataks

The Horne Nunataks (71°42′S 66°46′W) are a group of six nunataks in relative isolation, located on the north side of Goodenough Glacier, about 7 nautical miles (13 km) inland from the west coast of Palmer Land, Antarctica. They were named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for Ralph R. Horne, a British Antarctic Survey geologist at the Adelaide and Stonington Island stations in 1964–65.[1]
