Its a layer of our atmosphere, above the stratosphere, but beneath the thermosphere. It starts at around an altitude of 50-60km and ends at around an altitude of around 100-120km. The temperature tends to drop with increased height through the mesosphere. At the 100-120km point is the coldest place on earth, with temperatures around -160'C. Temperatures then start to rise again with height through the thermosphere.

The third layer of the Earth's atmosphere is called the mesosphere. It is located above the stratosphere and below the thermosphere, with temperatures decreasing with height in this layer. The mesosphere is where most meteoroids burn up upon entering the Earth's atmosphere.


Does it snow in the mesosphere layer?

No, it does not snow in the mesosphere layer of the Earth's atmosphere. The mesosphere is too dry and thin for snow to form. Snow typically forms in the troposphere, the lowest layer of the atmosphere, where most weather phenomena occur.
