Mt. Everest is the highest mountain on Earth. But before it was discovered, no one knew about it, so at the time you could walk up to anybody, ask them if they agreed that Mt. Everest was the tallest mountain on earth, and they would either disagree or be confused. But even before it was discovered, it was still there, and it was still the tallest mountain on Earth. My question to you is that of a teacher reviewing a student: What is a fact?
