Uluru - it may not look very big but that's only because it's a long, long way away.

All tiny, compared to the majesty that is Olympus Mons[^] Which to the best of my knowledge is still unclimbed.

Yeah, but my question was regarding earth. :) Olympus Mons couldn't exist here. The crust isn't strong enough, for the higher gravitation.

Think I've seen this before, that Everest is the highest above sea level, Mauna Kea the highest from its base (on the seafloor), and Chimborozo the farthest from the Earth's centre.
We have a winner.

Given how relaxed hawaiians are, I'd guess Muana Kea.

Too bad that the highest known mountain is a volcano.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Señor, how do you call this delicious crust around the Chili you served me? That's a clay bowl, señor. :laugh: I don't think that gravity has anything to do with that.

The Road goes ever on and on Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with eager feet, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say.
Something to help you keep going.

Olympus Mons has been dethroned! It's only the highest planetary mountain in the solar system now. The new king is a central peak in a crater on the asteroid Vesta now. Good that Commander McLane did not hit it when he tried to land the fast cruiser Orion VII on Vesta[^], much to the delight of his superiors.

Hey, I know that road. Why are you sending him straight to Mordor?

Tolkein was from my neck of the woods, so he'd have been aware that Uluru is the world's biggest mountain, too!
