| abstract | - Olympus Mons is the tallest known volcano and mountain in our solar system, located on the planet Mars at approximately 18° N 133° W. Olympus Mons is located in the Tharsis bulge, a huge swelling in the Martian surface that bears numerous other large volcanic features. Among them are a chain of lesser shield volcanoes including Arsia Mons, Pavonis Mons and Ascraeus Mons, which are small only in comparison to Olympus Mons itself. Olympus Mons is a shield volcano, which means that it is the result of highly fluid lava flowing out of volcanic vents over a long period of time, and is much wider than it is tall; the average slope of Olympus Mons' flanks is very gradual. In 2004 the Mars Pathfinder orbiter imaged old lava flows on the flanks of Olympus Mons. Based on crater size and frequency counts, the surface of this western scarp has been dated from 115 million years in age down to a region that is only 2 million years old. This is very recent in geological terms, suggesting that the mountain may yet have some ongoing volcanic activity. The central edifice of Olympus Mons stands 17 miles (27 Km) high above the planet's surface level (about three times the elevation of Mount Everest above sea level). It is 342 miles (550 Km) in width, flanked by steep cliffs, and has a caldera complex that is 53 miles (85 Km) long, 37 miles (60 Km) wide, and up to 1.8 miles (3 Km) deep with six overlapping pit craters. Its outer edge is defined by an escarpment up to 4 miles (6 Km) tall; unique among the shield volcanoes of Mars. The Hawaiian Islands are examples of similar shield volcanoes on a smaller scale (see Mauna Kea). The extraordinary size of Olympus Mons is likely due to the fact that Mars does not have tectonic plates. Thus, the crust remained fixed over a hot spot and the volcano continued to discharge lava, bringing it to such a height. A person standing on the surface of Mars would be unable to view the upper profile of the volcano even from a distance as the curvature of the planet as the volcano itself would obscure it. However, one could view parts of 'Olympus Mons;' standing on the highest point of its summit, the slope of the volcano would extend beyond the horizon, a mere 1.8 miles (3 Km) away; from the 1.8 miles (3 Km) elevated caldera rim one could see 50 miles (80 Km) to the caldera's other side; from the southeast scarp highpoint (about 3 miles (5 Km) elevation) one could look about 112 miles (180 Km) southeast; from the northwest scarp highpoint (about 5 miles (8 Km ) elevation) one could look upslope possibly 149 miles (240 Km) and look northeast possibly 143 miles (230 Km). The caldera at the peak of the volcano was formed after volcanism ceased and the roof of the emptied magma chamber collapsed. During the collapse the surface became extended and formed fractures. Later additional caldera collapses were formed due to subsequent lava production. These overlapped the original circular caldera, giving the edge a less symmetrical appearance. Two of the craters on Olympus Mons have been provisionally assigned names. These are the 9.6 mile (15.6 Km) diameter Karzok crater (18°25′N, 131°55′W) and the 6.4 mile (10.4 Km) diameter Pangboche crater (17°10′N, 133°35′W). The land immediately surrounding Olympus Mons is a depression in the bulge 1.2 miles (2 Km) deep. The name Olympus Mons devires from the Latin, "Mount Olympus". Olympus Mons viewed on Google Mars

- Olympus Mons was a large volcanic mountain located on Mars. According to Tanya Webster, it was "the biggest volcano in known creation" and was located "just across the plain" from Izdaal's tomb. (AUDIO: Red Dawn) British astronauts Grosvenor and Guest planted the Union Jack there in the 1970s. (PROSE: The Dying Days) The location was involved in the Earth's counter-offensive against the Ice Warriors during the Thousand Day War. Members of the United Nations Third Tactical Response Brigade dropped on Mars, suffering heavy casualties. The bar known as the Ice Maiden was originally located halfway up Olympus Mons and served as an R&R stop during the war. (PROSE: Transit) The central control facility for the Sol Transit System was located inside the volcano, as well as the power grid established by Fusion Corp. (PROSE: Transit) Rudy Zoom claimed he was the first man to climb Olympus Mons. (COMIC: The Eye of Torment) Darzil Carlisle was born just outside Olympus Mons in 2414.

- Olympus Mons is a sizeable, superbly developed, and aging nation at 668 days old with citizens primarily of Mixed ethnicity whose religion is Hinduism. Its technology is first rate and its citizens marvel at the astonishing advancements within their nation. Its citizens pay extremely high taxes and many despise their government as a result. The citizens of Olympus Mons work diligently to produce Cattle and Spices as tradable resources for their nation. The government has no definite position on foreign affairs at this time. It believes nuclear weapons are necessary for the security of its people. Plans are on the way within Olympus Mons to open new rehabilitation centers across the nation and educate its citizens of the dangers of drug use. Olympus Mons allows its citizens to protest their government but uses a strong police force to monitor things and arrest lawbreakers. It has an open border policy, but in order for immigrants to remain in the country they will have to become citizens first. Olympus Mons believes in the freedom of speech and feels that it is every citizen's right to speak freely about their government. The government gives foreign aid when it can, but looks to take care of its own people first. Olympus Mons has no definite position on trade relations.
- Largest mountain and volcano on Mars and in the solar system. Extremely lowly inclined. Some areas nearby show evidence of tectonic activity.
