* Earth's Diameter: Approximately 12,742 kilometers (7,926 miles)
* Highest Elevation: Mount Everest, at 8,848.86 meters (29,031.7 feet) above sea level.
* Lowest Elevation: Challenger Deep in the Mariana Trench, at 10,924 meters (35,840 feet) below sea level.
Comparison:
* Earth's diameter is significantly larger than both the highest and lowest elevations.
* Mount Everest's height is about 0.07% of Earth's diameter.
* Challenger Deep's depth is about 0.08% of Earth's diameter.
Perspective:
Imagine Earth as a basketball. Mount Everest would be a small bump on the surface, and Challenger Deep would be a slight dent. The scale of these elevations is minuscule compared to the overall size of our planet.
