An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Hansen Spur (86°13′S 159°33′W / 86.217°S 159.550°W) is a spur, 8 nautical miles (15 km) long, descending from the northwest side of Nilsen Plateau, in the Queen Maud Mountains of Antarctica, and terminating at the edge of Amundsen Glacier just east of the Olsen Crags. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1960–64, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for , a member of the sea party aboard the Fram on Amundsen's Norwegian expedition of 1910–12. This naming preserves the spirit of Amundsen's 1911 commemoration of "Mount L. Hansen," a name applied for an unidentified mountain in the general area. The Blackwall Glacier flows northwest along the northeast side of Hansen Spur to join Amundsen Glacier.

dbo:abstract
  • Der Hansen Spur ist ein 13 km langer Felssporn in der antarktischen Ross Dependency. Im Königin-Maud-Gebirge reicht er von der Nordwestflanke des Nilsen-Plateaus bis zum Rand des Amundsen-Gletschers unmittelbar östlich der Olsen Crags. Der United States Geological Survey kartierte die Formation anhand eigener Vermessungen und Luftaufnahmen der United States Navy aus den Jahren von 1960 bis 1964. Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names benannte den Sporn 1967 nach dem Norweger Ludvig Hansen (1871–1955), Matrose und Eislotse auf der Fram bei der Südpolexpedition (1910–1912) des norwegischen Polarforschers Roald Amundsen. Das Komitee wahrte damit die von Amundsen vorgenommene Benennung eines nicht identifizierbaren Bergs in der Umgebung des Felssporns als Mount L. Nansen. (de)

  • L'Hansen Spur, (in lingua inglese: Sperone Hansen), è uno sperone roccioso antartico, lungo 15 km, che scende dal fianco nordoccidentale del Nilsen Plateau e termina all'estremità del Ghiacciaio Amundsen appena est dell'Olsen Crags, nei Monti della Regina Maud, in Antartide. Lo sperone è stato mappato dall'United States Geological Survey (USGS) sulla base di rilevazioni e foto aeree scattate dalla U.S. Navy nel periodo 1960-64. La denominazione è stata assegnata dall'Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) in onore di Ludvig Hansen (1871-1955), membro dell'equipaggio della Fram, la nave della spedizione antartica del 1910-12 dell'esploratore polare norvegese Roald Amundsen. La denominazione preserva lo spirito della designazione fatta nel 1911 da Amundsen per denominare il Mount L. Hansen, nome assegnato a una monatgna non identificata di quest'area. Il Ghiacciaio Blackwall fluisce in direzione nordovest lungo il fianco nordorientale dell'Hansen Spur, per andare a confluire nel Ghiacciaio Amundsen. (it)
