Re: Maximum height of very cold ice mountain ?

Gravity is not that strong on those moons. 100 km on Earth would be
10^12 Pa. Looked at some of the moon mountain images, but could not
confirm exponential shape.

On Ttitan would have to be 700 km ice mountain for equal pressure.

At these very cold temperatures ice has rock-like strength.
Any calculation should match these amounts.
