1 00:00:01,580 --> 00:00:06,179 The Atmosphere 2 00:00:08,019 --> 00:00:11,900 It is a mixture of gases that surround the Earth 3 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:14,880 Some gases are 4 00:00:14,900 --> 00:00:19,940 Oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and water vapor 5 00:00:22,370 --> 00:00:26,989 Now we are going to talk about layers of the atmosphere 6 00:00:27,769 --> 00:00:29,769 There are five layers 7 00:00:31,109 --> 00:00:33,109 Troposphere 8 00:00:33,109 --> 00:00:38,750 stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. 9 00:00:40,549 --> 00:00:46,500 It is about 12 km thick. 10 00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:50,039 Clouds are formed here. 11 00:00:51,259 --> 00:00:53,719 Air balloons fly in this layer. 12 00:00:53,719 --> 00:01:01,539 It is about 50 km thick. 13 00:01:03,399 --> 00:01:09,439 We can find ocean layers that protect us from sun rays. 14 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,760 Airplanes fly in this layer. 15 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:21,189 It is about 85 km thick. 16 00:01:21,189 --> 00:01:25,189 It is the coldest layer. 17 00:01:25,189 --> 00:01:29,189 It protects us from asteroids. 18 00:01:29,189 --> 00:01:37,379 It is about 700 km thick. 19 00:01:37,379 --> 00:01:43,379 It absorbs infrared rays producing aurorae. 20 00:01:43,379 --> 00:01:49,750 It is about 10,000 kilometers thick. 21 00:01:51,030 --> 00:01:54,849 We can find the International Space Station. 22 00:01:55,890 --> 00:01:58,209 Rockets fly in this layer. 23 00:01:59,870 --> 00:02:01,489 Thanks for watching!
