Height
Height is measure of vertical distance, either vertical extent (how "tall" something or someone is) or vertical position (how "high" a point is). For example, "The height of that building is 50 m" or "The height of an airplane in-flight is about 10,000 m". For example, "Christopher Columbus is 5 foot 2 inches in vertical height." When the term is used to describe vertical position (of, e.g., an airplane) from sea level, height is more often called ''altitude''. Furthermore, if the point is attached to the Earth (e.g., a mountain peak), then altitude (height above sea level) is called ''elevation''. In a two-dimensional Cartesian space, height is measured along the vertical axis (''y'') between a specific point and another that does not have the same ''y''-value. If both points happen to have the same ''y''-value, then their relative height is zero. In the case of three-dimensional space, height is measured along the vertical ''z'' axis, describing a distance from (or "above") t ...

Sometimes it takes a while for them to grow up, or for us to find the right way to really bring them to life." In September 2021, the band released their second single, "Fire in Your House", which features South-African musician Johnny Clegg, along with his son Jesse.
