The image span (left to right) The Ronne Ice Shelf and Filchner Ice Shelf (the two are separated by Berkner Island, whose outline is barely visible just left of the center of the image), and Coats Land. At bottom right, a few rocky peaks are visible through the snow, and are known as the Shackleton Range.
