Miranda Peaks

Miranda Peaks (71°28′S 68°36′W / 71.467°S 68.6°W / -71.467; -68.6) is a line of about six peaks trending north-south on the south side of Uranus Glacier, in eastern Alexander Island. The peaks were photographed by Lincoln Ellsworth, November 23, 1935, in the course of a trans-Antarctic flight and were plotted from the air photos by W.L.G. Joerg. Named by United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) from association with Uranus Glacier after Miranda, one of the moons of the planet Uranus.
