The View from Everest

COSMIC MESSAGE

The view from the top of Mount Everest, the tallest mountain on Earth. At 8.85 kilometers above sea level, it's roughly the maximum height reached by international airplane flights. The panoramic vista shows snow-peaked mountains, cliffs, distant plateaus, and the tops of clouds under a dark blue sky.
