Check out this great picture of Everest and Makalu from Space. The image was taken from the Interntaional Space Station back in January of 2004, and it gives a great sense of scale of the mountains in the region and what they look like from low Earth orbit. Pretty amazing stuff. Click here for high-res version.
Thanks Alan!
