The below link shows some greatest mountains pictures from Mars, Moon, Jupiter's moon, and Venus. No great mountains from Mercury.
The giant planets such as Uranus, Neptune and Pluton has no great mountains? http://www.space.com/php/multimedia/imageg...mgid=724&gid=58 Rodolfo Re-Edited: For Forum Administrator I am sorry that I have put this topic into a wrong forum topic.

A question for moon specialists, what is the tallest moon, from the surface?
According to the information sources, I have learned that the Moon has great difference between the bottom to the top, it is about 3 km below of the Moon reference radius and about 12-13 km above the reference radius (not sure how exactly but about that). Rodolfo |

Rodolfo Boosaule Montes on Io is ~16 km above the surrounding plains. -------------------- &@^^!% Jim! I'm a geologist, not a physicist!
