An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Cape Longing (64°33′S 58°50′W / 64.550°S 58.833°W) is a rocky cape on the east coast of Graham Land, Antarctica, forming the south end of a large ice-covered promontory which marks the west side of the south entrance to Prince Gustav Channel. It was discovered by the Swedish Antarctic Expedition under Otto Nordenskiöld in 1902, and so named by him because from the position of his winter hut on Snow Hill Island the cape lay in the direction of his "land of longing" which he was anxious to explore.

  • Longing Gap ist eine Scharte an der Nordenskjöld-Küste des Grahamlands auf der Antarktischen Halbinsel. Sie liegt am 3 km breiten Isthmus der Longing-Halbinsel und stellt einen Durchgang von der Griffiths Bay im Nordosten zu einer Seitenbucht des Larsen Inlet im Südwesten dar. Das UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee benannte sie 1964 in Anlehnung an die Benennung der gleichnamigen Halbinsel und des gleichnamigen Kaps. (de)
  • Cape Longing (64°33′S 58°50′W / 64.550°S 58.833°W) is a rocky cape on the east coast of Graham Land, Antarctica, forming the south end of a large ice-covered promontory which marks the west side of the south entrance to Prince Gustav Channel. It was discovered by the Swedish Antarctic Expedition under Otto Nordenskiöld in 1902, and so named by him because from the position of his winter hut on Snow Hill Island the cape lay in the direction of his "land of longing" which he was anxious to explore. Cape Longing is the tip of Longing Peninsula (64°30′S 58°50′W / 64.500°S 58.833°W), which is 9 nautical miles (17 km) long and situated at the northeast end of Nordenskjöld Coast where it separates the Larsen Ice Shelf from the Prince Gustav Ice Shelf. It was roughly charted by Nordenskiöld, and named after the cape by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) following British Antarctic Survey geological work in the area in 1987–88. Longing Gap (64°25′S 58°57′W / 64.417°S 58.950°W) is a constriction in the promontory north of Cape Longing, where the land narrows to 2 nautical miles (4 km) and forms a low isthmus. The gap is used to avoid the long detour around the cape. It was mapped from surveys by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey in 1960–61, and named by the UK-APC in association with the cape. (en)
  • El cabo Longing o cabo Deseo (según Argentina) es una punta rocosa ubicada en la costa este de la península Antártica, Antártida. Forma el extremo sur de un gran promontorio cubierto de hielo que marca el lado oeste de la entrada sur del canal Príncipe Gustavo.​​ (es)
  • La penisola Longing è una penisola lunga circa 18 km situata sulla costa orientale della Terra di Graham, in Antartide. (it)
  • O Cabo Longing ou cabo Deseo é um cabo rochoso na costa oriental da península Antártica, na Antártida. Forma o extremo sul de um grande promontório coberto de gelo que marca o lado oeste da entrada sul do canal do Príncipe Gustavo. Foi descoberto pela de Otto Nordenskjöld em 1902, e designado Längstans Udde (cabo Deseo) porque da posição do seu na ilha Snow Hill, o cabo estava na direção da sua «terra de anseio» que procurava explorar. (pt)
  • Deseo är en udde i Antarktis. Den ligger i Västantarktis. Argentina, Chile och Storbritannien gör anspråk på området. Terrängen inåt land är huvudsakligen platt, men västerut är den kuperad. Havet är nära Deseo österut. Den högsta punkten i närheten är 223 meter över havet, 4,1 kilometer väster om Deseo. Trakten är obefolkad. Det finns inga samhällen i närheten. (sv)
  • 渴望角(英語:Cape Longing)位於葛拉漢地東部海岸。由奧托·努登舍爾德在1902年途中發現,他認為從斯諾希爾島望去,此地正是探險的「渴望之地」,因而得名。 渴望角位於渴望半島(64°30′S 58°50′W / 64.500°S 58.833°W)的前端,座落於努登舍爾德海岸東北末端,正好將古斯塔夫王子冰架與拉森冰架分開。在結束後,確認此名稱為正式定名。 (zh)
