Blue Glacier (77°50′S 164°10′E / 77.833°S 164.167°E / -77.833; 164.167 (Blue Glacier)) is a large glacier which flows into Bowers Piedmont Glacier about 10 nautical miles (19 km; 12 mi) south of New Harbour, in Victoria Land, Antarctica. It was discovered by the British National Antarctic Expedition (BrNAE) under Robert Falcon Scott, 1901–04, who gave it this name because of its clear blue ice at the time of discovery.^[1]
