The highest mountain in the Solar system is Olympus Mons.
The peak towers over the surface of Mars and its height is more than 21.9 kilometers. It is a mountain of volcanic origin, whose activity has not yet ceased.
On the south coast, about 50 km from the Atlantic Ocean, lies the Qinngua Valley, protected from the cold winds from the interior of the island. This is the warmest place in Greenland where a natural forest has developed.
The trees that grow there can reach a height of 7-8 metres. Birch, willow, ash and alder are among the trees that grow there.
In 2011, researchers discovered two new species of freshwater stingrays in the Amazon River.
The Heliotrygon (rosai and gomesi), commonly referred to as the Pancake stingrays, is the first new genus of stingrays from the Amazon described since 1987.
