Moser Glacier

The Moser Glacier on the Danco Coast of Graham Land in the British Antarctic Territory flows slowly westwards into the north-east arm of Andvord Bay and just south-east of Arago Glacier.

This glacier charted by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition under Gerlache in 1897-99. It was photographed from the air by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition 1956-57. It was named in association with the names of pioneers of photogrammetry grouped in this area; in this case after Ludwig Ferdinand Moser (1805-80), German physicist who invented stereoscopic photogrammetry in 1844.
