has abstract	Besson Rock (Bulgarian: скала Бесон, romanized: skala Besson, IPA: [skɐˈla bɛˈsɔn]) is the rock off the northwest coast of Nelson Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica extending 45 m in southeast–northwest direction and 32 m in southwest–northeast direction. Its surface area is 0.09 ha. The vicinity was visited by early 19th century sealers. The feature is named after Jacques Besson (ca 1540–1573), a French inventor and mathematician who created the cosmolabe, an instrument to be used for navigation, surveying and cartography; in association with other names in the area deriving from the early development or use of geodetic instruments and methods. (en) Der Besson Rock (englisch; bulgarisch скала Бесон skala Beson) ist ein in südost-nordwestlicher Ausrichtung 45 m langer und 32 m breiter Klippenfelsen vor der Nordwestküste von Nelson Island im Archipel der Südlichen Shetlandinseln. Er liegt 1,93 km nördlich des Smilets Point, 2,78 km nordöstlich des Folger Rock, 2,78 km südwestlich von Withem Island und 2,27 km westlich bis nördlich des Retamales Point. Britische Wissenschaftler kartierten ihn 1968. Die bulgarische Kommission für Antarktische Geographische Namen benannte ihn im April 2021 nach dem französischen Mathematiker und Ingenieur Jacques Besson (≈1540–≈1573), einem Erfinder eines Universalinstruments.
