If View from Above doesn’t resolve for any reason (for example, if its target has become illegal), none of its effects happen. It will be put into your graveyard as normal.
- WotCFeb 1, 2009
If you control a white permanent, View from Above moves from the stack to your hand as part of its resolution. It never hits the graveyard. If you don’t control a white permanent, View from Above is put into the graveyard from the stack as normal.

This checks the colors of permanents you control as it resolves.
