There are many ways in which the atmosphere protects us.
The troposphere is the layer of the atmosphere we live in. It contains weather.
The stratosphere contains the Ozone Layer. This layer protects us from UV rays
The mesosphere has low temperatures and burns meteors. This stops objects in space that can harm the earth.

Does the mesosphere protect earth from meteoroids?
The atmosphere protects earth from meteoroids. The mesosphere is just one layer in the atmosphere.

How long would the Earth's atmosphere last without the magnetosphere and without the atmosphere how long would it take for humans to die?
Forget the atmosphere . . . if the magnetosphere went away, people would die horrible deaths and be largely gone in a couple of months. The magnetosphere helps carry damaging Solar particles to the south and north poles and then out into space. (Along with the Van Allen belt) If the atmosphere went away, people and animals would all die in about 10 minutes, except for SCUBA divers and firemen, who might last a quarter of a day.
Why is your atmosphere so important?

What are some interesting things about the Moon's atmosphere?
The only thing that can be said about the Moon's atmosphere is that it has none, because its gravity is too weak to hold an atmosphere on its surface. Also, it doesn't have a magnetic field to protect an atmosphere from solar winds, which would slowly 'knock off' particles in the Moon's atmosphere until there were none left if it did have an atmosphere.
Does the earth atmosphere protect us from zero gravity?
