Every breath we take in contains 21% oxygen, the gas that makes life on Earth possible. Oxygen, in its combined oxide state, ...

New observations and simulations capture the physics at play across each of the three main ionospheric regions.

The Russian Space Agency Roscosmos reported on Saturday (May 10): "The spacecraft entered the dense layers of the atmosphere at ... consent The ESA added: "This GIF combines TIRA observations ...

New study reveals the impact of the Mother’s Day geomagnetic storm on the Sporadic E layers that could disrupt radio communications and navigation systems Fukuoka, Japan—In a paper published ...

In orbit, the expanded atmosphere increased drag on thousands of satellites. NASA's ICESat-2 lost altitude and entered safe mode while NASA's Colorado Inner Radiation Belt Experiment (CIRBE ...

the consequences for Earth's atmosphere remain uncertain. Scientists warn that aluminium oxide particles could take 20 to 30 years to descend into the ozone layer, making it difficult to assess ...

The temperature can change from very hot to very cold, depending on sunlight exposure. It can range from 1,700°C (3,092°F) in the sun to -270°C (-454°F) in the shade.

With that the amount of alumina released into the mesosphere and upper stratosphere — the otherwise pristine middle layers of the atmosphere — has been skyrocketing. Air pollution in the ...

Its haze layer most likely forms there under the influence of the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the carbon-rich gases in the atmosphere ... CEA, CNRS, AIM, Gif-sur-Yvette, France [CEA]), ...

But when I am talking about the atmosphere, I am referring to the layer closest to Earth, the troposphere, where all weather occurs. Of course, there are multiple layers to the atmosphere.
