What is the altitude of the Mesosphere Layer?
It is 87 km of altitude.
Which atmosphere are satellites found in?
Low earth orbit (LEO) satellites are defined as any artificial object between 160 km and 2000 km altitude. Any satellite from 160 km to 690km are in the Thermosphere.Any satellite in the region between 690km to 10,000 kmaltitude are in the Exosphere.10,000 km is considered the very top of the atmosphere. Any satellites above this altitude is not considered in the atmosphere. Geostationary satellites for example are at an altitude of 35,786 km.
What layer of the atmosphere is about 550 km to 1000 km?
the exosphere
The outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere?
The outermost layer of the earth's atmosphere is the exosphere (about 500 to 200 km altitude). It is practically a vacuum. When listing only the four major layers, the exosphere is sometimes considered part of the thermosphere. (see related questions)
How far is the start of the atmosphere from the surface of earth?
The atmosphere begins at the surface of the Earth and extends to space. The upper levels are the thermosphere (up to about 500-650 km altitude) and the exosphere (generally from 500 to 2000 km altitude but is nearly a vacuum).
Which layer extends to an average altitude of about 12 km?
Troposphere
The thin layer of the atmosphere at an altitude of 15 to 40 km in which ozone absorbs ultraviolet solar radiation?
The ozone layer!
What is the altitude of the Mesosphere Layer?
It is 87 km of altitude.
What is the second layer of the earth's atmosphere?
The stratosphere (about 10 to 50 km altitude) is above the lowest level, the troposphere, and is separated from it by the tropopause. (see related question)
What atmosphere layer is the stratosphere?
The layer above the troposphere, and below the mesosphere. Near the equator, this places the stratosphere between 10 and 50 km in altitude. It is lower at the poles.

How high up in the atmosphere is the ozone layer?
The ozone layer is 12 - 15 km above the earths surface
The stratospheric ozone layer forms at what altitude?
The stratospheric ozone layer forms at high altitude. It is 25 km.
Ozone layer sets in an altitude of?
Ozone sets in stratosphere. The altitude of it is 28 km.
What layer of the atmosphere is about 550 km to 1000 km?
the exosphere
What is the layer of the earth's atmosphere closest to the surface?
The stratosphere (about 10 to 50 km altitude) is above the lowest level, the troposphere, and is separated from it by the tropopause. (see related question)
What is the altitude when the temperature approaches -90C?
Around 80 km in height in the mesosphere is the third layer of the atmosphere of Earth. The temperature decreases as you go up, as in the troposphere. It can be up to -90 ° C. It is the coldest part of the atmosphere.
