Himalayan Horizon From Space

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

This isn't a view from an airliner, but from the International Space Station, orbiting hundreds of miles above Earth. It captures the rugged, snow-covered peaks of the Himalayas, with Dhaulagiri, the seventh-highest peak, on the left horizon. The foreground shows the southern Tibetan Plateau, all seen through a telephoto lens from space.
