Carlota Cove

Carlota Cove is the 1.9 km wide cove indenting for 1.14 km the northwest coast of Alfatar Peninsula, Robert Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica next east of Coppermine Peninsula, and entered between Fort William and Misnomer Point. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers operating from neighbouring Clothier Harbour.

The feature was surveyed and named by the 1949 Chilean Antarctic Expedition under Captain Leopoldo Fontaine.

Location

The cove's midpoint is located at 62°22′15.7″S 59°41′47.9″W (British mapping in 1935, 1967 and 1968, Argentine in 1957 and 1980, Chilean in 1961 and 1971, and Bulgarian in 2009).

gollark: This is... worrying, my backup disk's (fscrypt) encrypted bit somehow has correct file contents but mangled filenames.
gollark: Those don't support things like compressing using a shared dictionary, and also have inconsistent support for advanced features.
gollark: There are still cases where it might be useful to read part of an archive. Such as if you have tar-based backups, or you want to read just the metadata out of a package tarball, or you want to just list all the files in a big one.
gollark: Lzip is neat apart from being entirely tied to LZMA, which is now obsoleted by zstandard.
gollark: Or there are, but they seem to be basically unsupported.
