Thanks to these studies, we now know the five layers of the atmosphere are the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere (see graphic). Together, these layers protect us ...

Among the molecules found in the Thermosphere is Carbon Dioxide (CO2) which conducts heat that from lower down in the atmosphere then radiates it outwards. “Thus, increasing concentrations of ...

Imagine there’s a super-rich alien living on a nearby planet. It runs a business that involves making and launching hi-tech ...

The primary science objective of the TIMED mission is to understand the energy transfer into and out of the Mesosphere and Lower Thermosphere/Ionosphere region of the ...

The current state of Earth's climate has no recorded precedent. The consequences of the sheer volume of anthropogenic ...

The space-atmosphere interaction region is constantly affected by ... Moreover, the quest to construct a predictive model of the thermosphere-ionosphere has so far focused on reproducing observed ...

The launch of these NASA rockets is aimed at studying the impact of the geomagnetic phenomenon on the Earth's upper ...

An unexpected consequence of climate change known as upper atmospheric cooling has finally been confirmed by satellite sensors. While proving the accuracy of our previous climate models, the ...
