The boundary where the atmosphere meets space is known as the Kármán line, located at an altitude of about 100 kilometers (62 miles) above sea level. This demarcation signifies the transition from the Earth's atmosphere, where aerodynamic lift is possible, to the vacuum of space, where traditional flight becomes unfeasible. Above this line, the atmosphere becomes increasingly thin, with fewer gas molecules and pressure, leading to the conditions of outer space.
What else can I help you with?
This holds a planet's atmosphere close to its surface?
Gravity holds a planet's atmosphere close to its surface. The gravitational force of the planet's mass prevents the gases in the atmosphere from escaping into space. Without gravity, the atmosphere would disperse into space.
How big is the sky?
The sky is everything you can see above you when looking up. It is the atmosphere that we see from the surface of the Earth.The universe, however, is immensely large.
Why has the Moon's surface remined unchanged?
because it is not in the earth's atmosphere. in space there isn't an atmpsphere therefore its surface does not change. k because it is not in the earth's atmosphere. in space there isn't an atmpsphere therefore its surface does not change. k
What force keeps your atmosphere from floating out into space?
atnosphere gets held back by earths gravtional field
How far is the edge of space from the surface of the earth?
I suppose you mean, where the atmosphere ends. The atmosphere doesn't end abruptly, rather, it gradually becomes thinner. But at a height of a few hundred kilometers, for most practical purposes there is no more atmosphere.
This holds a planet's atmosphere close to its surface?

What is the atmosphere on europa?
Europa doesn't have an atmosphere, the vacuum of space meets the ice covering the liquid water and rocky core of the moon.
What do the energy exchanges between space the atmosphere and earths surface produce?
The energy exchanges between space, the atmosphere, and Earth's surface produce Earth's climate system. These exchanges regulate temperature, weather patterns, and ocean currents, influencing the overall climate on our planet. The balance of energy is critical in maintaining Earth's habitable environment.
How wide is earths atmosphere?
We think of the atmosphere as a big ocean of air around us, but the air around us is very thin relative to the size of the earth. The "thickness" of the atmosphere or the distance between the earth's surface and the "top" of the atmosphere is not exactly measurable. With increasing altitude the atmosphere fades slowly away into space. Therefore it is not easy to tell exactly how high the atmosphere really is. Perhaps 50 kilometers. (see answer "how far is it to outer space?")
What are the moon's atmosphere?
Our moon has no atmosphere, since it is too small to hold one. The surface is similar to the vacuum of space
What force holds the atmosphere to earths surface as it travels through space?
Gravity.
The energy exchanges between space the atmosphere and earth's surface produce what?
h
What energy exchanges between space the atmosphere and Earth and surface produce?
h

Does lithosphere also includes ocean floors?
No, the lithosphere doesn't include the ocean floor because it is a layer of the atmosphere. (outer space)
Which term specifically describes small chunks of rocks and debris in space that travel through the Earths atmosphere and hit its surface?
Meteoroids are small chunks of rocks and debris in space that travel through Earth's atmosphere and hit its surface.
What is the energy exchange between space the atmosphere and earths surface produce?
The energy exchange between space, the atmosphere, and Earth's surface produces a balance of incoming solar radiation and outgoing thermal radiation. Solar energy is absorbed by the Earth's surface, which then emits thermal radiation back into the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere trap some of this thermal radiation, leading to the warming of the Earth's surface.
