Is the layer of the atmosphere where satellites and the space shuttle orbit the earth?
exosphere
How many space stations are in the US?
No space stations are in the US. The only space station, the ISS is currently in Earths orbit.

How many space stations are currently in orbit?
one
What atmosphere is the international space station in?
above the msosphere and below the exosphere sumwhere around there Its orbit is in the thermosphere which is approximately at a altitude of 300km. it is above the mesosphere and below the exosphere.

Why does space stations have no moons?
Space stations are too small and do not have gravitational pull to draw in something that large to orbit it.

What does the exosphere do for earth?
Nothing. It has been recorded that gases are kept in a layer before trailing off into space, and this area was dubbed the exosphere. Some satellites orbit here.

Which atmospheric layer is where space shuttles orbit?
The atmosphere is divided in to five layers. These are Troposhere, Stratosphere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere and Exosphere. The space shuttles orbit in thermosphere.The atmosphere is divided in to five layers. These are Troposhere, Stratospere, Mesosphere, Thermosphere and Exosphere. The space shuttles orbit in thermosphere.
How many space stations are there?
There are currently two space stations in orbit. They are the permanently manned International Space Station and China's Tiangong 1 which is usually unmanned.
Is a space shuttle flown in the exosphere?
Since the exosphere has no specific end, and it is almost into orbit, then yes. When a space shuttle reaches orbital velocity, it is going to fly past the exosphere. A space shuttle has never attained escape velocity that I know of. It is certainly capable, though. Also, a space shuttle can be flown in the exosphere without ever reaching orbit in some conditions. (i.e. if they launch at JFK in Florida and land at Edwards Air Base in California, because the earth moves counterclockwise. They could only be up there for a very short time, however.)
