The Full Story
Mount Everest is the highest mountain above sea level, with an official elevation of about 8,849 meters. It sits on the border between Nepal and the Tibet Autonomous Region of China in the Himalayas. Everest formed as a result of the collision between the Indian and Eurasian plates, which continues today. Although it is the tallest by elevation, it is not the farthest from Earth’s center; that title goes to a mountain in Ecuador when measured from the planet’s center.
