Alignment refers to an adjustment of a vehicleâs suspension â the system that connects a vehicle to its wheels. It is not an adjustment of the tires or wheels themselves. The key to proper alignment is adjusting the angles of the tires which affects how they make contact with the road.
On May 29, 1953, Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay completed the first confirmed ascent of Mount Everest, which stands 29,035 feet above sea level.
As always, National Geographic goes with the best sources.. Everest's new elevation is remarkably close to the previous official height of 29,028 feet (8848 meters) set in 1954 by the Survey of India after picking the unweighted mean of altitudes determined from 12 different survey stations around the mountain.
