    A military pilot is photographed at extreme altitude, wearing a full flight helmet with dark visor and a white oxygen/pressure mask with connected hose. The background shows the curvature of the Earth with a visible atmospheric horizon line, suggesting the aircraft is flying at very high altitude. The dramatic composition and lighting create a striking contrast between the pilot in the foreground and the deep blue near-space environment behind.
