If you're aiming for the highest point in our solar system, look no further than the tip-top of Olympus Mons on Mars. This colossal volcano is a whopping 72,000 feet tall, making Mount Everest look like a mere hill. Imagine standing on its summit and feeling like the ultimate space explorer. With its Martian red surroundings, you'd have a view that's out of this world – literally. So, if interplanetary climbing is your thing, pack your spacesuit and aim for the heights of Olympus Mons!
