Britain gets new tallest peak in British Antarctic Territory
Mount Hope in the British Antarctic Territory has become Britain's highest mountain after satellite data revealed it was 55 metres taller than the 3,184-metre-high Mount Jackson, previously believed to be the tallest. The 3,239-metre-high Mount Hope, earlier thought to be 377 metres shorter, is more than two times taller than Ben Nevis, the highest mountain in the British Isles.
