The air gets thinner. That's why if you are climbing a mountain the trees are shorter as you get to the top because they don't have as much air as the lower atmosphere.
The Earth's atmosphere declines with altitude.
Put it into a containment unit and let it go. When it enters the atmosphere of a planet it will burn up.
Go into the menu select AIR or OFF AIR then select SCAN.
They burn up because of friction.Friction. Meteors enter the atmosphere at phenomenal speeds, and the friction of the great speed through the atmosphere causes heat. The speed of the most recent Perseid meteors a couple of months ago was measured at 135,000 miles per hour.It's because further out, the atmosphere is too thin to cause any warmth by friction, which is what makes the meteors burn.
MeteoriteThe glow surrounding a meteoroid is not caused by friction between the atmosphere and the meteoroid (as many people mistakenly believe), but rather due to the shock wave produced as a meteoroid slams into the Earth's atmosphere, rapidly compressing the air. This shock wave (properly called ram pressure) causes the exterior of the meteoroid to heat up and melt giving off a strong glow. Also, small amounts of gas surrounding the meteoroid are superheated as well, causing the bright tails seen behind meteors.
Air density decreases as you go higher up in the layers of the atmosphere. This is because the pressure decreases with altitude, causing the air molecules to spread out, resulting in lower density.
It cools and condenses
temperature and altitude
Air pressure decreases as you go up.
As you go up into the atmosphere, the air pressure decreases, which can make it harder to breathe and may lead to altitude sickness. The temperature also typically decreases with altitude. Additionally, you can experience changes in air density, which can affect how well you can hear sound and how quickly objects fall.

It becomes less dense.
When air pressure goes up, the temperature usually goes down. This is because as air pressure increases, the air molecules come closer together, which reduces their kinetic energy and therefore lowers the temperature.
colder, the farther up you go, the lower the tempurature
A 1inch by 1inch column of air from the edge of the atmosphere to sea level weighs 14.7 pounds, 80% of that is in the Troposphere. As you go up, the air within that column has less mass, making the air "thinner", and air pressure goes decreases.
They both go up in the air
