Supporters Range

The Supporters Range (85°04′S 169°30′E) is a rugged range of mountains in Antarctica, 40 km long, bordering the eastern side of Mill Glacier, from Keltie Glacier in the north to Mill Stream Glacier in the south.[1]

So named by the New Zealand GSAE (1961–62) because several peaks of the range are named after supporters of Ernest Shackleton's British Antarctic Expedition (1907–09).[1]

Among the mountains in this range is Mount Iveagh, a 3422-metre peak on the east side of the Beardmore Glacier. Mount Iveagh was discovered by the British Antarctic Expedition and named for Edward Guinness, 1st Earl of Iveagh, of the firm of Guinness, who helped finance the expedition.

Features

Geographical features include:

gollark: I decided to copy that root table, and it works now. Thanks! I'll probably use something else to actually serialize when it's out of testing anyway.
gollark: So why does that preclude using the same table repeatedly?
gollark: Hmm... I guess I can either avoid textutils.serialise or copy that table...
gollark: So the problem is in textutils.serialise being stupid and *not* my stuff?
gollark: Weird weirdness: this code snippet (https://pastebin.com/YWug4NUg).Two tables alone can be serialized fine. Stick them in one table and it errors ("can't serialize table with recursive entries").
