Detailed explanation-1: -Exosphere. Located between about 700 and 10, 000 kilometers (440 and 6, 200 miles) above Earth’s surface, the exosphere is the highest layer of Earth’s atmosphere and, at its top, merges with the solar wind.
Detailed explanation-2: -Exosphere. This is the outermost layer of the atmosphere. It extends from about 375 miles (600 km) to 6, 200 miles (10, 000 km ) above the earth. In this layer, atoms and molecules escape into space and satellites orbit the earth.
Detailed explanation-3: -Exosphere. This is the outermost layer of the atmosphere. It extends from the top of the thermosphere to 6, 200 miles (10, 000 km ) above the earth.
Detailed explanation-4: -Moving upward from ground level, these layers are called the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. The exosphere gradually fades away into the realm of interplanetary space. Layers of the atmosphere: troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere and thermosphere.
Detailed explanation-5: -There is a fifth layer called the exosphere, where the atmosphere gradually thins and merges with interplanetary space, but we won’t consider this further as the molecules are so far apart, it no longer behaves like a gas.
