Ummm………. Mt. Kilumanjuaro (I spelled it wrong) is the world’s tallest mountian. It is located in Alaska.

Phil, great article! I really did enjoy your passage – especially with all the humor. However, I MUST note that I find it very interesting when Christians explain how GOD created our planet. All the details were left out in Genesis, so I look to explanations such as yours. Although, I’m well aware that Christians don’t half believe science books. Most Christians believe this world is special– I find that being extremely naive, but that’s just me and millions of other scientists around the planet. Anyway, again….great stuff!

i believe star wars is considered science fiction due to the fact that fiction means fake.

But if 42,6km of difference between the maximum and minimum diameter makes the Earth not round enough, that would mean that a billiard ball of 6cm of mean diameter would have to have a maxium difference of around 0,2mm between its maximum and minimum diameter.

Is that level of acuracy even possible? (I’m not assuming anything, I really don’t know)
