Astro Peak

Astro Peak

Astro Peak (coord|83|29|S|57|0|W|) is a peak, 835 m, standing 1 mile (1.6 km) off the west end of Berquist Ridge in the Neptune Range, Pensacola Mountains. So named by Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) because the United States Geological Survey (USGS) established an astro control station on this peak during the 1965-66 season.
