Facts about the exosphere:

  • It is the outermost of the five layers of the atmosphere.
  • It is about 5,500 miles away from earth
  • Its distance is about 500 to 600 km above Earth's surface.
  • It is very thin
  • It is mainly made up of hydrogen and helium, the lightest gases (there is also some carbon dioxide and oxygen).
  • Towards the top, the molecules of the exosphere are so far apart that there is no clear boundary between the exosphere and outer space; some scientists even consider it part of outer space.
  • Some molecules in the exosphere that are traveling fast enough escape into space, while others are pulled back by gravity, but the molecules in the exosphere do not usually collide with each other because it is so low-density.
  • It is the darkest layer of the atmosphere
  • Its temperature ranges from 300-1700 degrees celsius

contains hydrogen and helium

Will you die if you touch Saturn?
