360 degree View from Mt. Everest
Roddy Mackenzie, who climbed the mountain in 1989, captured the above
image.
The above photo has circulated through emails by friends
sharing this impressive view.
The email read in part:
What would it be like to stand atop the tallest mountain on Earth?
To see a full panoramic vista from there, scroll right. Visible are snow peaked mountains
near and far, tremendous cliffs, distant plateaus, the tops of clouds, and a dark blue sky.
Mt. Everest stands 8.85 kilometers above sea level, roughly the maximum height reached
by international airplane flights, but much less than the 300 kilometers achieved by a
space shuttle. Hundreds of people have tried and failed to climb the behemoth by foot, a
feat first accomplished successfully in 1953. About 1000 people have now made it to the
summit. Roddy Mackenzie, who climbed the mountain in 1989, captured the above image.
Mt. Everest lies in the Himalayan mountains in the country of Nepal. In the native
language of Nepal, the mountain's name is
"Sagarmatha" which means "forehead of the sea."

The title "Onward ~ and ~ Upward" is a
"motto" I used as a teenager and young adult --- then forgot about for
a number of years. I feel it is a fitting motto to strive for and a
fitting title for the topics of this website.
