iss067e268010 (Aug. 17, 2022) --- The Himalayas, separating the Indian subcontinent from the Asian continent, are pictured from the International Space Station as it orbited 257 miles above northern India. The Asian mountain range prevents the northern colder air from blowing south allowing the subcontinent's tropical zone to extend farther north than anywhere else in the world.
