It's just gas, much like the rest of the atmosphere, so a rocket just pushes right through it. You know how clouds block sunlight, and if they are thick enough, you can't see the Sun anymore and it is pretty dark? Airplanes can fly through those clouds. The ozone layer is like those clouds, only it doesn't block visible light... and it is very thin. Ozone just blocks UV-B and more energetic light, protecting Earth's surface.

∙ 13y agoyes because of the fluorocarbons in the fire coming out this puts many holes in the ozone layer

Does the ozone layer still have a hole?
as we know there are 2 holes in the ozone layer, over Asia and another 1 over the north pole - it is all apart of god's plan. so don't go freaking out if there is a hole. god knows what he is doing. everything is for a reason...
Why do people other than those living near the poles need to be concerned about the ozone layer?
The lowest year-round "total column ozone" levels are at the equator. Depletion affects the entire atmosphere. Ozone holes at the pole do not put people at risk of cancer, cataracts, and ultimately starvation, since the hole heals shut when there is no sunlight with UV-B to be protected from. The ozone hole is just a symptom of other problems with the ozone layer.
What vehicles can go to the ozone layer?
Most pressurized aircraft, and weather balloons can go that high. The aircraft will damage the ozone as they fly in it. Rockets and high altitude weather balloons can go above it. The rockets will damage the ozone as they are near it.
What protects living things from uv rays?
The ozone layer present in the stratosphere region of the atmosphere protects is from the harmful UV radiations of the sun. These are highly energetic radiations which could cause skin cancer, eye cataract and suppression of immune system among the human beings.
What is a ozon layer?
It is a layer in the stratosphere (at approximately 20 miles). It contains a concentration of ozone, sufficient to block most ultraviolet radiation from the sun. THats why this layer of atmosphere is called ozonosphere(derived from ozone).. !!

Can you put up a fake ozone layer if the real one is depleted?
No, we cant put up a fake ozone. It is because it will be impossible to artificially create so much ozone as present in the ozone layer.

How would you put ozone in a sentence?
the ozone layer is being destroyed due to human pollution.
How do people affect the Arctic tundra?
Ozone Depletion... when greenhouse gases put holes in the ozone layer.
How does polluting put holes in the ozone layer?
Pollution causes global warming. It then causes ozone depletion.
Why can't you just fill in the ozone hole with man made ozone?
The ozone hole isn't the problem. The means for us to develop the energy used to make ozone to fill the hole is the problem. We put too much waste heat, too much water vapor into the atmosphere, and this depletes ozone.
What three molecules put together the ozone layer?
That would be nitrogen (N2), oxygen (O2), and ozone (O3).
What caused the global warming to put a hole in the ozone layer?
No, Global Warming has almost nothing to do with the ozone hole. Ozone is a protective layer in the upper atmosphere. It is formed, when oxygen molecules absorb short wavelength ultra violet radiations from the sun. Ozone is mostly destroyed by free radicals in the atmosphere. When compounds like CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) and other halocarbons are released, they are dissociated by sunlight into chloride radicals. These radicals attack ozone, thereby decreasing its concentration. This results in a thinning of the ozone layer, and in polar regions, a hole. The holes occur at the poles, and usually in Antarctica because of the extreme cold. During the winter polar stratospheric clouds form which are able to convert gases in the atmosphere into Cl (chlorine) and ClO (chlorine monoxide). When the sun arrives at the end of winter, that is the trigger to begin. This is why the hole is largest in spring.

What would be some issues with living in the area where the ozone hole is?
Ozone hole would cause UV-B to enter in. Living in that area wold put you in risk on contact with UV.
Why cant you put ozone in the hole?
No, you may not be able to rent ozone generators. Beacause scientists have found that generation should be done naturally.
