Which of Earth's mountain peaks is furthest from the centre of the earth?

by **Pal Joey** Fri May 31, 2013 12:58 am

Centre of the earth... so the highest from the centroid? Mt Everest... or maybe Visson Massif in Antarctica?

Or does the bulge factor come into it?

by **Kenny** Fri May 31, 2013 5:58 pm

the biggest ?

by **JuliusHMarx** Tue Jun 04, 2013 11:59 am

It's called something like Chirozo, except that's a sausage, so it's not exactly that. It's somewhere in South America I think.
Pretty vague, but we need to move on Smile

Oh yeah, the volcano in Mexico? Is that the furthest from the centre of the earth or the one with the greatest 'profile' above/against the surrounding land?

by **JuliusHMarx** Tue Jun 04, 2013 12:36 pm

Furthest from the earth's centre I believe, because it's near the equator, or something like that. Equator = Ecuador - might be there.

by Luckless Pedestrian Tue Jun 04, 2013 12:50 pm

There's a volcano in Mexico called Popocatapetl (it might not be spelt exactly like that, but Googling it to check might count as cheating!), is that the one?

I'll pose one.

As far as I know, only 3 artists have replaced themselves at the top of the UK singles charts. Can you name them?

by **Kenny** Thu Jun 27, 2013 10:52 am

I would guess The Beatles and Elvis would be two , maybe Westlife or The Spice Girls as the other ?

by The Womble Thu Jun 27, 2013 10:53 am

Yes The Beatles were first, Elvis was third (however he did it posthumously in the 00's)

There is someone in between and it's a solo artist.

by **Kenny** Thu Jun 27, 2013 10:57 am

so Elvis didn't do it in the 50/60s that would of been my banker .

Is the solo artist Madonna ?
