To get into space how high up do you have to travel

80KM or 50 miles is what the height the government uses to get the space shuttles into space

In what way does ocean water move globally

Along cold water currents from the poles to the equator.

What is an effect of La Nia

Mr poppins is coming

What is the difference between the formation of intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks

intrusive:below ground

extrusive:at the surface

In what layer can a hot air balloon travel

STRATOSPHERE

In which layer of the atmosphere did the Concorde cruise

All passenger airplanes cruise at the stratosphere.

What are two characteristics of the thermosphere that make it necessary for us to use a space shuttle to get through it

Thermosphere is the atmosphere's outermost layer with a very thin air and no definite outer limit. The reason why a space shuttle gets through it is because shuttle orbiters used ceramic tiles and heat protection.

What temperatures would you expect in the mesosphere

Which mesosphere? The one for the Earth's atmosphere or for the inside? Well, I'll talk about inside. Extremely hot temperatures (since it is the middle of the Earth's inside) so about a few thousand celsius. The mesosphere in the atmosphere is very cold with temperatures as low as -90 degrees celsius.

Why wouldn't the Concorde cruise travel higher

It did, the Concorde travelled at 60,000 feet and it's cruising speed was 1,350 MPH. It went higher because of its higher cruising speed.

Extends 50-85 km above earth's surface

Mesosphere

What are the travel insurance policies

Higher the risk higher the price premium.

What are the characteristics of this layer that make it the ideal layer for the Concorde to travel

I have no idea

Why wouldn't it travel lower

I am sorry but we can't answer because we don't know what "it" is. Please clarify what it is so we can answer.
