World's highest meteorological station set at the peak of Everest

Scientists have built the world's highest meteorological station on Mount Everest over the past month, which will help to understand the climate and climate of the region. Meteorologist from the University of Man Dr. Paul Musewski and his colleagues have built climatic stations at five locations in the Himalayan region, one of which is built on Everest. There are a number of purposes of mounting a weather device in the cold of Everest by putting John at risk. Experts not only want to know the temperature and pressure, but also want to do a detailed study on the 'jet stream operating in South Asia', which is the main purpose of this lab. For this reason it has been called the 'window of the planet' or the window of the planet. The jet stream is the thin layer of air that travels across the earth at some height above the ground. Although we know that their movements produce effects such as heat and cold on the earth, we are still unaware of the complex dynamics of the jet stream and other issues. Scientists claim that Everest is one of the few mountains on Earth whose peak touches the jet stream and, therefore, also the perfect location for an automated station based on lightweight and outdated equipment, and to create climate in South Asia. The main jet stream of the pass also passes through. In the second phase, meteorologists are also considering obtaining ancient ice samples from different depths of Everest. The ancient climate patterns can be found throughout the region's climate calendar, which we can also better predict. On the other hand, snow samples also indicate thousands of years of meteorological history. The weather station had to be built at the same peak first but the plan had to be changed because of the rush of the climbers. Now the station has been set up at 'The Balcony', just 420 meters below the peak, ie 8430 meters high. To be clear, there were several smaller stations built on Everest before, but first they were downstream and secondly none of them was designed for research on the jet stream.
