    But measuring from the center of the earth to the farthest point closest to the reaches of space - Mount Chimborazo in Ecuador is 20,946,207 feet, where Everest is only 20,937,238 feet. This is due to the oblong shape that the planet endures by rotating on it axis.

    Climb Everest if you wish, but you'll be 8,969 feet closer to the moon by climbing Chimborazo.
