Based on some of the latest measurements, it is estimated that Earth has a polar radius (i.e. from the middle of Earth to the poles) of 6,356.8 km, whereas its equatorial radius (from the center to the equator) is 6,378.1 km. In short, objects located along the equator are 22 km further away from the center of the Earth (geocenter) than objects located at the poles.
聖母峰 8848m 是最高
Everest lies at a distance of 6,382 kilometers (3,965 miles)
但是 如從海底算 夏威夷的馬拉起亞是 10,206 m
Chimborazo reaches to a distance of 6,384 kilometers (3,967 miles)
欽博拉索山位於南美洲的厄瓜多,是一座圓錐形的死火山,海拔6268米,位於厄瓜多首都基多西南偏南150公里,是厄瓜多的最高峰。 欽博拉索山可以說是一座「另類」的世界最高山峰,因為近年科學家透過人造衛星測定,地球既不是標準的球形,也不是標準的橢圓球形,而是一個南大、北小、中間鼓的「梨形」
,欽博拉索山頂峰距地心的厚度為6384.10公里,而珠穆朗瑪峰距地心的距離為6381.95公里,比欽博拉索山少2.15公里。

事實上,由於重力作用,地球赤道周圍出現了一個凸起部分。地球的極半徑為3949.99英里(約合6357公里),而它的赤道半徑為3963.34英里(約合6378公里)。地球上看上去有『腰間贅肉』。
