00:00:00,690 --> 00:00:21,280
Hey everyone guess where I am well don't think so hard I am in space do you see

2
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:29,620
that blue ball well that's where you are that's the earth but hey what are these

3
00:00:29,620 --> 00:00:36,219
they are the layers of atmosphere so let's learn about the layers of

4
00:00:36,219 --> 00:00:43,820
atmosphere today zoom in this is the troposphere this layer is where the

5
00:00:43,820 --> 00:00:49,780
weather occurs this is the lowest atmospheric layer and begins at the

6
00:00:49,780 --> 00:00:55,939
surface of the earth and extends out to about four to ten miles the temperature

7
00:00:55,939 --> 00:01:02,320
the troposphere decreases with increase in altitude just so that you know

8
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:08,180
altitude is the height of an object or point in relation to the ground level

9
00:01:08,180 --> 00:01:16,260
now we are in the stratosphere second lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere here

10
00:01:16,260 --> 00:01:22,400
the temperature rises with the rise in altitude you will also find the ozone

11
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:32,640
layer here which helps absorb harmful UV rays from the Sun this is the layer

12
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:37,859
where you will find aeroplanes flying around as the stratosphere is free of

13
00:01:37,859 --> 00:01:43,920
all weather disturbances the stratosphere extends to about 30 to 35

14
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:51,439
miles above the Earth's surface this is the mesosphere where most meteors burn

15
00:01:51,439 --> 00:01:57,439
Turn upon entry, the mesosphere stretches up till 50 miles from the earth's surface.

16
00:01:58,439 --> 00:02:02,439
The thermosphere is next and the air is very thin here.

17
00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:06,439
Temperatures get extremely hot in the thermosphere.

18
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:10,439
It extends up to 400 miles from the earth's surface.

19
00:02:11,439 --> 00:02:15,439
The lower part of this layer contains the ionosphere.

20
00:02:16,439 --> 00:02:18,439
Many atoms are ionized in this layer.

21
00:02:18,439 --> 00:02:21,439
And you will also find electrical charge here.

22
00:02:25,810 --> 00:02:28,810
This is the last layer and the air is quite thin here.

23
00:02:29,810 --> 00:02:31,810
Yes, it is the exosphere.

24
00:02:32,810 --> 00:02:37,810
It goes all the way up to 6200 miles from the earth's surface.

25
00:02:38,810 --> 00:02:40,810
Trivia Time!

26
00:02:43,379 --> 00:02:44,379
Did you know?

27
00:02:45,379 --> 00:02:49,379
Troposphere contains more than 75% of atmosphere's mass.

28
00:02:49,379 --> 00:03:00,099
mass and the ions in the ionosphere help to transmit radio waves it's getting a

29
00:03:00,099 --> 00:03:06,360
bit spooky here I think it's time for me to get back to earth so this is me

30
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:13,800
zooming out tune in next time for more fun facts
