bottom of the Mariana Trench (note about scale below)
A faux Bargello embroidery showing the scale of the Earth, from the top of Mount Everest to the bottom of the Mariana Trench (scale may not be absolutely exact in this representation) Sea level is the straight line. I used the proportions from a marvelous poster available at Space.com here (http://store.hermanstreet.com/science/our-amazing-planet-top-to-bottom-infographic-poster-12-x48/). The poster is full of fascinating information, much more than just the scale of the earth from it's highest to lowest points. If the link doesn't work try going to space.com and find the link for the store, then search "Our Amazing Planet From Top to Bottom" See this design in half brick here (http://www.spoonflower.com/fabric/1445440)
