![A view of mountains from the International Space Station. There are lines in various shades of gray that look like highways - these are paths carved by glaciers moving through the mountain range. Several peaks around the lines are untouched. A few clouds dot the sky at middle left and bottom left.](https://www.nasa.gov/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/iss069e060266orig.jpg)

What looks like highways going through a metropolitan area are actually a series of glaciers carving their way through the Karakoram mountain range north of the Himalayas. This photograph was taken from the International Space Station as it orbited 263 miles above.
