No, Mt. Everest is not the tallest mountain, Olympus Mons is the tallest known mountain

The answer depends on what you mean by "tallest".

  • Highest above sea level: True.
  • Furthest from the center of the Earth: False (Mt. Chimborazo is the winner here).
  • Greatest vertical separation between base and peak: False (Mauna Kea is the winner here).
