In 2022, DJI was able to fly one of their drones over Mt. Everest.
Here's the video recorded by the drone around the highest point on Earth!
https://youtu.be/Zz9oI3B6v4cIn 2024 and 2025, DJI drones, specifically the Mavic 3 Pro and Mavic 4 Pro, achieved record-setting, high-altitude flights over Mount Everest, capturing 8K footage of the summit at 8,848 meters. These drones, often operated with 8KRAW, showcased remarkable stability in high winds (up to 50 km/h) and thin air.

Wild Argentina. High on the altiplano, with no one else for hundreds of kilometres, crossing beauty I never even imagined — something you won’t find in any book. Unique, memorable.

Just north of the famous Salar de Uyuni, Tunupa Volcano is somewhat secluded and sees far fewer visitors. It is beautiful, remote, and offers the best evening one could wish for.

At the Chile–Bolivia border and rising above 6000 m, Parinacota is an ancient volcano, a white sentinel watching over both countries, often disappearing into the afternoon storms.

Amazing live feed from a high-altitude balloon! Sent Sept 9 over the 70 cm ham band at ~300 kbps with a 1W transmitter—50 km range and Eb/N0 >20 dB. Brilliant demo of low-power, long-range video comms and tinkering. Don’t miss it! #HamRadio #AmateurRadio #BalloonLaunch #HighAltitude #RadioComms #DIY #Telemetry #Wireless #English

Rock textures, dark pines, and a strip of blue water that shows up when you least expect it.

Day 4 is the higher mood, thinner trees and heavier sky as you keep climbing the #PikesPeakHighway ☁️ in #PikesPeak #ColoradoSprings
Cloud shadows slide across the slopes, then the light breaks through just enough to shape the ridgeline.

Horus Binary v3 (amateur high altitude balloon telemetry protocol) was only announced as beta yesterday^1 and there's already several test payloads showing up on the map!
Unlike v2 payload callsigns and custom sensors can be sent without updating a central authority first. It features variable payloads lengths from 32bytes to 128bytes. And the decoder no longer requires a separate library built meaning we now have wheels on pypi for quick/easy install without the need to compile.
Details: https://github.com/projecthorus/horusdemodlib/wiki/99-Horus-Binary-v3-Beta-Testing-Notes
^1 in fact it's only really existed at all for a few days

Modern #inhabitants of the #TibetanPlateau are #descendants of people who have occupied the ‘#RoofOfTheWorld ’ for the past five #millennia . In the biggest #study of its kind, #researchers sequenced dozens of #ancient #genomes from the region, #revealing where its ancient #settlers came from and how they #adapted to #HighAltitude living.
Despite its inhospitable environment, #humans have been present on the #plateau since #prehistoric times. -
The Mountainous Pudacuo National park is home to the Yunnan snub-nosed monkey. These monkeys live at an altitude of up to 4000 metres, higher than any other primate.
