We explore nature to seek survival resources, gain technological inspiration, and most importantly, protect our only home-the Earth.
Mount Qomolangma is the highest mountain in the world, with an elevation(海拔) of about 8,848.86 meters. It is located on the border between China and Nepal. Many climbers dream of reaching its peak, but it is very challenging due to the harsh(严酷的) weather and thin air. It is also known as the "roof of the world" and is a symbol of nature's grandeur(壮丽).

Temperatures can fall to -30 degrees. Climbers must also deal with thin air, high cliffs, and changeable weather.
In 1960, the first Chinese team reached the top from the northern side (the "Death Road") and placed the Chinese national flag there.
In 1975, another Chinese team climbed to the top and brought a ladder to the Second Step, which helped later climbers.
In 2020, a third Chinese taem measured Qomolangma's height as 8,848.86 meters
Because human curiosity and ambition cannot be stopped. Or, as the English explorer George Mallory put it, it is simply "because it's there".
