Low Earth Orbit, such as the International Space Station.
The Ionosphere is also in this range, though it extends both up and down. The same can be said for magnetosphere, all of which vary in altitude based on time of year and position over Earth, and the Exosphere (outer space), the base of which is can vary from 450km to 700km.
What else can I help you with?
If jet planes fly at 35000 feet how many miles above earth?
35K Feet = 10.668 KM Atmosphere = 560 KM Airplane at 35,000 feet would be above approximately 1.9% of the earth's atmosphere.
Is 500 km that far?
500 km is quite big. Its roughly 310 miles so yes, quite large!
What is the linear speed of a satellite in a circular orbit 1250 kilometers above Earth that makes one complete revolution every 110 minutes if the radius of the earth is 6400 kilometers?
26218.57 km/hr
What is 5000m in km?
5000m equals 5km @1000m per km
What percent of the atmosphere is above 5.6 kilometers?
The breathable atmosphere only extends to about 7 or 8 kilometers (22,000 to 26,000 feet), and by the top of the stratosphere (50 km) is a near vacuum. The edge of space is commonly defined as 100 km (62 miles or 328,000 feet). The lowest stable satellite orbits are at 160 km (100 miles) above the Earth, but there are still occasional air molecules out as far as 600 km (373 miles).
List two of the thermosphere and describe word each begins above Earth's surface?
The two layers that make up the thermosphere are the thermopause, which starts at around 500 km above the Earth's surface, and the exosphere, which begins around 700 km above. The thermopause is the boundary that marks the transition from the thermosphere to the exosphere, where the density of molecules is extremely low.
What are the different layers in the atmosphere?
They are (from lowest altitude to highest)Troposphere, which ranges from about 0-10 km above Earth's surface,Stratosphere, which ranges from about 10-50 km above Earth's surface,Mesosphere, which ranges from about 50-85 km above Earth's surface,Thermosphere (largest), which ranges from about 85-500 km above Earth's surface, andExosphere, which ranges from 500 km aboveThe ozone layer is in the stratosphere.
Which atmospheric layer is the longest distance from Earth?
The exosphere is the atmospheric layer that is the furthest from Earth's surface. It extends from about 500 km to 10,000 km above sea level.
How far is space?
According to NASA, space begins about 100 km above the surface of the earth, where the atmopshere is considered to be null.
What altitude is the exosphere?
Well, that's hard to say. You can take an estimate by knowing that it is the uppermost atmospheric layer, and that beyond it, is outer space. The exosphere is right above the thermosphere (and ionosphere), and the thermosphere can range up to 85-500 km. above Earth. So yeah, the exosphere is pretty high up. P.S. The exosphere is where space shuttles travel.
What is the outer most main layer of earth's atmosphere?
The outermost main layer of Earth's atmosphere is the exosphere. It extends from about 500 km to 10,000 km above the Earth's surface. The exosphere is where the Earth's atmosphere transitions into outer space.
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).
What layer extends 85 km above earth into space?
The Thermosphere is the fourth layer of the Earth's Atmosphere. It starts at approximately 90 km above the earth and continues up to 500 km. The Exosphere is the uppermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere. It starts at about 500-1000 km above the earth and continues up to 10000 km.
How many km is mars from earth?
400 to 500 million km
What is located immediately above the stratopause?
The mesosphere is located immediately above the stratopause.
What layer has the lowest air pressure?
The layer with the lowest air pressure is the exosphere, which is the outermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere. It extends from about 500 km to 10,000 km above the Earth's surface and contains very few gas particles.
Where are most of earth's atmospheric gases found?
Within 8 to 12 KM of Earth's surface
