凯尔盖朗群岛
地理位置

凯尔盖朗群岛(法语:Îles Kerguelen),印度洋南部一群岛,属法国海外领地法属南方和南极领地管辖,主要居民点(首府)法兰西港。主岛面积6675平方公里,被200多个小岛屿环绕,总面积7215平方公里,无永久居民。坐标:东经69度35分,南纬49度15分。

该岛在1772年被法国探险家伊夫·凯尔盖朗-特雷马克发现,1776年,英国探险家詹姆斯·库克再次来到该岛,并以凯尔盖朗之名为其命名。由于岛上一片荒凉,库克为其取别名“荒野之岛”(Desolation Island)。虽然没有永久居民,但法国方面在此处编制了50至100位科学家与工程师从事研究工作;中华人民共和国亦设立有航天测控站。

The Kerguelen Islands (/ˈkɜːrɡəlɛn/ or /ˈkɜːrɡələn/; in French Îles Kerguelen but officially Archipel des Kerguelen, pronounced: [kɛʁɡeˈlɛn]), also known as the Desolation Islands (Îles de la Désolation in French), are a group of islands in the southern Indian Ocean constituting one of the two emerged parts of the mostly submerged Kerguelen Plateau. They are among the most isolated places on Earth, located 450 km (280 mi) northwest of the uninhabited Heard Island and McDonald Islands and more than 3,300 km (2,051 mi) away from the nearest populated location. The islands, along with Adélie Land, the Crozet Islands and the Amsterdam and Saint Paul Islands, are part of the French Southern and Antarctic Lands and are administered as a separate district.
