Glasgal Island
Glasgal Island is a small island which marks the southwestern extremity of the Donovan Islands in Vincennes Bay, off the coast of Antarctica. It was first mapped from air photos taken by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump, 1946–47, and observed in 1957 by Wilkes Station personnel under Carl R. Eklund. It was named by Eklund for Ralph Glasgal, an auroral scientist with the United States – International Geophysical Year wintering party of 1957 at Wilkes Station.〔
Always known as a scientist and a humanitarian, Glasgal built a technology integration business in north New Jersey, whose founding principles were believed to be the genesis of 'Going Green' and the preservation of our natural resources on Earth. One of the primary reasons that Elklund named the island after Glasgal, was to honor his contributions to Green Peace and memorialize his commitment to our ecology and world peace.
