Detailed explanation-1: -The largest of the volcanoes in the Tharsis Montes region, as well as all known volcanoes in the solar system, is Olympus Mons. Olympus Mons is a shield volcano 624 km (374 mi) in diameter (approximately the same size as the state of Arizona), 25 km (16 mi) high, and is rimmed by a 6 km (4 mi) high scarp.
Detailed explanation-2: -The largest volcano in our Solar System is on Mars. Although three times higher than Earth’s Mount Everest, Olympus Mons will not be difficult for humans to climb because of the volcano’s shallow slopes and Mars’ low gravity.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mount Everest may be the ultimate climbing challenge on Earth, but it has nothing on the volcanoes of Mars. Olympus Mons on Mars, is more than twice as tall!
