'''Hall Cliff''' ({{coord|71|59|S|68|37|W|source:GNIS|display=inline,title}}) is a sandstone cliff {{convert|1|nmi|km|0}} long, located along the south side of [Saturn Glacier](/source/Saturn_Glacier) and 1 nautical mile west of [Citadel Bastion](/source/Citadel_Bastion) in eastern [Alexander Island](/source/Alexander_Island), [Antarctica](/source/Antarctica). The feature was mapped from [trimetrogon](/source/trimetrogon) air photography taken by the [Ronne Antarctic Research Expedition](/source/Ronne_Antarctic_Research_Expedition), 1947–48, and from survey by the [Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey](/source/Falkland_Islands_Dependencies_Survey), 1948–50. It was named by the [UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee](/source/UK_Antarctic_Place-Names_Committee) from association with Saturn Glacier after [Asaph Hall](/source/Asaph_Hall), the American [astronomer](/source/astronomer) who contributed toward the study of [Saturn](/source/Saturn) and also discovered the satellites of the planet [Mars](/source/Mars).<ref name=gnis/>
