text:
Henson Glacier is a glacier flowing northward from the Detroit Plateau in Graham Land, Antarctica, and merging with Wright Ice Piedmont about 2 nautical miles (4 km) southwest of Hargrave Hill. It was mapped from air photos taken by Hunting Aerosurveys Ltd (1955–57), and was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee for William S. Henson, the English designer of a powered model aeroplane (1842–43) which led to widespread aeronautical research and development.
