Brahe Rock (original) (raw)
Brahe Rock (Bulgarian: скала Брахе, romanized: skala Brahe, IPA: [skɐˈla ˈbrahɛ]) is the rock off the north coast of Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica 85 m long in west–east direction and 50 m wide, and split in three. Its surface area is 0.14 ha. The vicinity was visited by early 19th century sealers. The feature is named after Tycho Brahe (1546-1601), a Danish astronomer who applied the triangulation method to map Hven (Ven) Island; in association with other names in the area deriving from the early development or use of geodetic instruments and methods.

dbo:abstract | Der Brahe Rock (englisch; bulgarisch скала Брахе skala Brache) ist ein in west-östlicher Ausrichtung 85 m langer und 50 m breiter Klippenfelsen vor der Nordküste der Livingston-Insel im Archipel der Südlichen Shetlandinseln. Er liegt 2,55 km nordöstlich des Essex Point, 430 m westlich von Window Island und 1,5 km nördlich des Voyteh Point. Bulgarische Wissenschaftler kartierten ihn 2009 und 2017. Die bulgarische Kommission für Antarktische Geographische Namen benannte ihn im April 2021 nach dem dänischen Astronomen Tycho Brahe (1546–1601), der die Triangulation bei der Vermessung der schwedischen Insel Ven angewendet hatte.
