Mountains

There is no evidence to suggest that the Himalayan mountains have secret passageways. These mountains are vast and rugged, with many unexplored areas, but there is no credible information to support the existence of hidden tunnels or secret passages within them.

Yes, the Moon has mountain ranges. The most famous one is the Montes Apenninus. The Moon's mountains are not formed by tectonic activity like on Earth, but rather by the impact of asteroids and meteorites.

Mountain Range called "roof of the world" is the Pamir range (Google)

Mountains are often formed by the movement of tectonic plates, which can also cause earthquakes. The collision or movement of these plates can lead to the buildup of stress along fault lines, eventually releasing energy in the form of an earthquake. Mountains can also influence the distribution and intensity of seismic activity in a region due to the geological forces at play.

Yes, Vinson Massif is the highest peak in Antarctica, standing at 16,050 feet (4,892 meters) above sea level. It is part of the Ellsworth Mountains range in the continent's interior.

No, the elevation of 20000 feet is measured from sea level, not from the base of the mountain. If you climb to the top of the mountain, you would be at the summit, but your elevation above the base of the mountain would be less than 20000 feet.

Human satellites and space shuttles have never probed beyond the further most reaches of the solar system, let alone galaxy, which makes it impossible to correctly answer which planet has the tallest mountain, but it is known that gas giants (Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter and so forth) cannot possibly have any form of landscape as they have no large amounts of solid material, and currently the tallest known mountain is on Mars; the mountain being upside of three times the scale of Mount Everest, and over twice the size of the underwater Mauna Keia.

Mount Everest is approximately 8,848 meters (29,029 feet) tall.

No, not every mountain located along the edge of a continent is a volcano. Some mountains along continental edges are formed by tectonic plate collisions or uplifting without volcanic activity. Volcanic mountains are formed by the eruption of molten rock from beneath the Earth's crust.

Mount Everest was first discovered to be the world's highest peak in 1852, though it was officially confirmed in 1856 by a British team led by Sir George Everest. The mountain was named after Sir George Everest, who was the Surveyor General of India at the time and played a key role in the mapping of the region.

Mount Bromo is one of two volcanoes that were created following a massive eruption which created an enormous caldera in which are the active Mount Bromo and the non-active Mount Batok.

The early eruptive stages of Mount St. Helens are known as the "Ape Canyon Stage" (around 40-35,000 years ago), the "Cougar Stage" (ca. 20-18,000 years ago), and the "Swift Creek Stage" (roughly 13-8,000 years ago).

A dormancy of about 4,000 years was broken around 2500 BCE with the start of the Smith Creek eruptive period, when eruptions of large amounts of ash and yellowish-brown pumice covered thousands of square miles. An eruption in 1900 BCE was the largest known eruption from St. Helens during the Holocene epoch, judged by the volume of one of the tephra layers from that period. This eruptive period lasted until about 1600 BCE and left 18 inches (46 cm) deep deposits of material 50 miles (80 km) distant.

The next eruptive period, the Castle Creek period, began about 400 BCE, and is characterized by a change in composition of St. Helens' lava, with the addition of olivine and basalt. Another 400 years of dormancy ensued.

The Sugar Bowl eruptive period was short and markedly different from other periods in Mount St. Helens history. It produced the only unequivocal laterally directed blast known from Mount St. Helens before the 1980 eruptions.

Roughly 700 years of dormancy were broken in about 1480, when large amounts of pale gray dacite pumice and ash started to erupt, beginning the Kalama period. The eruption in 1480 was several times larger than the May 18, 1980, eruption. In 1482, another large eruption rivaling the 1980 eruption in volume is known to have occurred. St. Helens reached its greatest height and achieved its highly symmetrical form by the time the Kalama eruptive cycle ended, about 1647. A 57-year eruptive period started in 1800. There were at least a dozen reported small eruptions of ash from 1831 to 1857, including a fairly large one in 1842.

Mount St. Helens is most notorious for its catastrophic eruption on May 18, 1980, at 8:32 am PDT.

Mount Everest
Mount Everest is the world's highest mountain, with a peak at 8,848 metres (29,029 ft) above sea level. It is located in the Mahalangur section of the Himalayas on the Nepal side of Nepal-China (Tibet) border. Its mass if includes neighboring peaks Lhotse (8516 m), Nuptse (7855 m) and Changtse (7580 m).

The Vinson Massif is 16,860 ft/ 4,892 meters tall.

Not presently. Mount Rainier has not erupted in over a century and actually serves as a tourist attraction. However, it is considered to be the most dangerous volcano in the United States. While it is not as active as Mount St. the effects of an eruption would be far worse. It has the potential to produce very large, devastating mudflows that could inundate portions of Tacoma and Seattle.

Leisure activities on Mount Everest typically include photography, journaling, and simply taking in the breathtaking scenery. Some climbers also enjoy playing cards or other lightweight games in their downtime at base camps. However, the extreme conditions and challenges of climbing Everest mean that leisure time is often limited.

K2, the second highest mountain in the world, stands at 8,611 meters (28,251 feet) tall. It is located on the China-Pakistan border in the Karakoram Range.

Mount Kosciuszko, located in Australia, is approximately 2,228 meters (7,310 feet) above sea level.

Mt Tempest in Australia's Moreton Island was formed due to volcanic activity millions of years ago. It is believed to be a volcanic remnant formed by a series of eruptions that occurred under the seabed. Over time, erosion and weathering processes sculpted the mountain into its present form.

If Im not mistaken,it should be in Mars.Or that was the tallest or largest volcano.

~Episome says: The highest mountain in this galaxy is Olympus Mons on mars, so you where close enough :)

Fold mountains are typically formed at convergent plate boundaries, where two plates collide and compress the crust, leading to the folding and uplifting of rock layers. The collisional forces cause the rocks to deform and create the characteristic fold structures seen in fold mountains. Examples of fold mountains formed at plate boundaries include the Himalayas at the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate.

Mount Hibok-Hibok is located on Camiguin Island, part of the Philippines. It is an active stratovolcano in the northern Mindanao region.

Denali (Mt. McKinley) is 20,320 feet high. Converting to meters (http://www.metric-conversions.org/length/feet-to-meters.htm) = 6194 meters. See also: http://peakbagger.com/peak.aspx?pid=271

Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador has an elevation of 6,268 meters (20,564 feet) above sea level. It is the highest peak in Ecuador and is known for being the closest point on Earth to outer space.
