Eduardo Carrasco y Toro ( October 13, 1779 - November 16, 1865) was a Peruvian academic and politician, who held the position of Chief Cosmographer of the Republic of Peru.
He studied at the Real Convictorio de San Carlos and, from 1794, at the Royal Academy of Nautical Sciences.
Due to his aptitude for mathematics, Eduardo was incorporated into the teaching staff of this academy and was appointed second professor in 1806.
He was one of the sixty-five deputies elected in 1825 by the Supreme Court, who were called to approve the Lifetime Constitution of Venezuelan statesman and military officer Simón Bolívar.
In 2016, the Peruvian government decided to name its polar oceanographic vessel BAP Carrasco (BOP-171) in recognition of his work.
