Which earth motion causes the apparent daily movement of the constellations?
The rotation of the earth around its axis.
Why are telescopes placed in space above earths atmosphere?
Scintillation. Our atmosphere is in continous motion. Warm air changes the angle of EM waves passing through a little bit differently than cold air. The constant motion causes constant shifts in the waves. This is why the stars seem to twinkle. In space, there is no such distortion. Space borne telecopes see far clearer images because of this.
What causes the streak of light observed when a meteoriod enters Earth's atmosphere?
The friction with the Earth's atmosphere causes a meteor to heat up and burn.
What is the relationship between the moon surface gravity lack of atmosphere and temperature range?
The Moon's gravity causes the lack of atmosphere (any possible atmosphere evaporates out into space in a fairly short time); and the lack of atmosphere causes the extreme temperatures.
How is the atmosphere effected by gravity?
Gravity causes the atmosphere to stay here on Earth, where there is a huge demand for it.

Is the movement of air primarly a result of pressure differences from the atmosphere?
Yes. The movement of air is the result of pressure differences in the atmosphere. The day/night cycle causes differences in the temperatures further creating the pressure differences in the atmosphere ... PRIMARILY.
How is movement in wind produced?
Short answer: Differential heating of the atmosphere by the Sun causes air masses to move.
The upward movement of air in the atmosphere generally causes the temperature of that air to?
Decrease and become closer to the dewpoint. :-)
