STRATOSPHERE

  • Where planes fly
  • Has the Ozone Layer
  • 78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxegon
  • Bigger than the troposphere

  • Same size as the stratosphere
  • Middle layer
  • 71%Nitrogen, 28% Oxegon
  • Coldest layer

THERMOSPHERE

  • Hottest layer
  • Responsible for Auroras
  • Has a lot of carbon dioxide
  • 71% Nitrogen, 28% Oxegon

IONOSPHERE

  • Has Ions
  • A region in the thermosphere
  • Red= Nitrogen Happy
  • Blue= Oxegon Happy
  • Green= Nitrogen Excited

EXOSPHERE

  • Last layer
  • Barely any density
  • Disapears into the atmosphere
