In a sentence

うえaboveみて見てlook

Look up

How it works

(object) marks うえ (up, above) as the thing the looking is aimed at — Japanese treats the direction of your gaze as an object here. The verb 見るみる (look) appears in its (te-form), which on its own works as a casual instruction: "look up." There's no polite ください (please), so it's the relaxed version a friend would use.
