Mauna Kea, a dormant volcano, is one of the highest island mountains in the world. Its is located on the main island of Hawaii along with its slightly smaller neighboring mountain, Mauna Loa (13,667 ft.). If Mauna Kea's height is measured from its base (18,000 feet below sea level), it surpasses even Mount Everest, and is the world's highest mountain (31,796 ft.). Although there is no historical record of Mauna Kea's eruption, geologic evidence suggests that the volcano last erupted around 1650, and eruptions are present in traditional Hawaiian folklore. According to legend, Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa were the domains of two opposing goddesses, Poliahu and Pele respectively. Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions were produced from their violent rivalry.\n\n\n------------------\n\nRising gradually to more than 4 km above sea level, Mauna Loa is the largest volcano on our planet. Its long submarine flanks descend to the sea floor an additional 5 km, and the sea floor in turn is depressed by Mauna Loa's great mass another 8 km. This makes the volcano's summit about 17 km (56,000 ft) above its base! The enormous volcano covers half of the Island of Hawai`i and by itself amounts to about 85 percent of all the other Hawaiian Islands combined.

I suppose your question is: "The heaviest natural satellite of our stellar system?"\n\nThe answer:\nAstronomers declare that Ganymede, Jupiter's main galilean satellite, is the largest & the heaviest natural satellite in the Solar System, with a diameter of 5,268 km (3,273 miles). \nGanymede is larger than the planet Mercury.\n\n:-)

yep, the others have it right, Mt Everest, at 29,028 feet (not gonna covert to meters, I just don't feel like it) on the border of Tibet and Nepal, is the highest point on Earth.

Kilimanjaro (kĭl'ĭmənjä'rō) , highest mountain of Africa, NE Tanzania. An extinct volcano, it rises in two peaks, Uhuru (Kibo) (19,340 ft/5,895 m, Africa's highest point) and Mawenzi (17,564 ft/5,354 m), which are joined by a broad saddle (alt. c.15,000 ft/4,600 m). The mountaintop is noted for its snowcap, but the area covered by snow has decreased sharply since the early 1990s. Coffee and plantains are the chief crops raised on Kilimanjaro's intensively cultivated lower southern slopes. Tourism from mountain climbing has become an important source of revenue.

Highest on Pluto and lowest on Jupiter. \n\nOK, Pluto isn't a planet any more, but you did say bodies and not planets. OK, Jupiter has no solid surface, at least not until thousands of miles down in the planet. OK, on a small asteroid you could jump higher than on Pluto. In fact,on a small enough asteroid you could jump off it and never fall back because you have exceeded escape velocity. So highest would really be from any of millions of asteroids or meteoroids. But I digress.

The Alaska Range.\n\nIt includes Denali (Mount McKinley - 6,194 m/20,320 ft), the highest mountain in North America.

For all the rest of you folks: Mt. Everest is the highest mountain in the world.  The tallest, from base to summit happens to be Mauna Kea, the highest point in Hawaii, measured from the ocean floor.. It measures 13,796 ft above sea level plus another 16,000 ft below sea level.  That makes it: 29,796 ft total. Remember, the mountain is mostly submerged under the ocean.  Mt. Everest is only measured from sea level at 29.028 ft.

The Sun is the most prominent feature in our solar system. It is the largest object and contains approximately 98% of the total solar system mass. One hundred and nine Earths would be required to fit across the Sun's disk, and its interior could hold over 1.3 million Earths. The Sun's outer visible layer is called the photosphere and has a temperature of 6,000°C (11,000°F). This layer has a mottled appearance due to the turbulent eruptions of energy at the surface. \nSolar energy is created deep within the core of the Sun. It is here that the temperature (15,000,000° C; 27,000,000° F) and pressure (340 billion times Earth's air pressure at sea level) is so intense that nuclear reactions take place. This reaction causes four protons or hydrogen nuclei to fuse together to form one alpha particle or helium nucleus. The alpha particle is about .7 percent less massive than the four protons. The difference in mass is expelled as energy and is carried to the surface of the Sun, through a process known as convection, where it is released as light and heat. Energy generated in the Sun's core takes a million years to reach its surface. Every second 700 million tons of hydrogen are converted into helium ashes. In the process 5 million tons of pure energy is released; therefore, as time goes on the Sun is becoming lighter. \n\n\n\nThe chromosphere is above the photosphere. Solar energy passes through this region on its way out from the center of the Sun. Faculae and flares arise in the chromosphere. Faculae are bright luminous hydrogen clouds which form above regions where sunspots are about to form. Flares are bright filaments of hot gas emerging from sunspot regions. Sunspots are dark depressions on the photosphere with a typical temperature of 4,000°C (7,000°F). \n\nThe corona is the outer part of the Sun's atmosphere. It is in this region that prominences appears. Prominences are immense clouds of glowing gas that erupt from the upper chromosphere. The outer region of the corona stretches far into space and consists of particles traveling slowly away from the Sun. The corona can only be seen during total solar eclipses. (See Solar Eclipse Image). \n\nThe Sun appears to have been active for 4.6 billion years and has enough fuel to go on for another five billion years or so. At the end of its life, the Sun will start to fuse helium into heavier elements and begin to swell up, ultimately growing so large that it will swallow the Earth. After a billion years as a red giant, it will suddenly collapse into a white dwarf -- the final end product of a star like ours. It may take a trillion years to cool off completely. \nhope this works, go to the web site, too, just to see for yourself. good luck

Venus is the second planet from the sun, and is similar in size to earth. It is the hottest planet in the solar system (despite Mercury being closer to the sun) because of the greenhouse effect of its thick Carbon Dioxide atmosphere. Venus spins in the opposite direction to the other planets (known as retrograde motion) and spins so slowly that the time taken to spin (a day) is much longer than the time taken to orbit the sun (year). It has a daytime temperature of 475 degrees C (enough to make things glow red), constant volcanic activity, and sulphuric acid rain (which evaporates before it hits the ground due to the high temperature). Venus is completely covered in cloud, and its hellish conditions were only discovered when spacecraft travelled there, as there was no other way of seeing through to the surface.

From what we've seen so far, Mars, with Olympus Mons. \n\nThe central edifice stands 27 kilometres (about 88,600 feet) high over its base (about three times the height of Mount Everest above sea level and 2.6 times the height of Mauna Kea above its base); it reaches 25 km (15 miles) above the mean surface level of Mars.

Mount Elbrus (meaning twin peaks) is a peak located in the western Caucasus mountains, in Russia, near the border of Georgia. It is the highest mountain in the Caucasus which belongs to Europe (if the border between Europe and Asia is located south of Mount Elbrus - at the Kura and Qvirila rivers). Mt Elbrus (west summit) stands at 5,642 m (18,506 ft) and can be considered to be the highest mountain in Europe. The east summit is slightly lower: 5,621 m (18,442 ft).

SUN SOLARIS.\n\nI can not answer the reason - sorry.

Hawaii and Iceland are examples of places where volcanoes extrude huge quantities of basaltic lava that gradually build a wide mountain with a cone-like profile. Olympus Mons is the largest cone volcano on Mars, and is the tallest known mountain in the solar system. Smaller versions of cone volcanoes include lava cones, and lava mounds.\n\nQuiet eruptions spread out basaltic lava in flat layers. The buildup of these layers form a broad volcano with gently sloping sides called a shield volcano or a cone Examples of shield volcanoes are the Hawaiian Islands.

Olympus Mons on Mars.  Not sure of the exact height but close to 27 kilometres (about 88,600 feet)!   This is only in "our" solar system, but hey, thats got to be one of the tallest.

It's the biggest planet in our solar system.1300 times larger than earth.It has a storm that has been raging for over 300 years in it's atmosphere called the Great Red Spot.It's also the storm that torn Comet Shoemaker Levy 9 to pieces.One of it's crust layers consists of liquid metallic hydrogen.
