The exosphere is a thin, atmosphere-like volume surrounding a planet or natural satellite. Its molecules are gravitationally bound to that body. The density is so low that the molecules are essentially collisionless. [1]
28 Ιουν 2019 · The exosphere is the outermost layer of our atmosphere. “Exo” means outside and is the same prefix used to describe insects like grasshoppers that have a hard shell or “exoskeleton” on the outside of their body.
The exosphere is a thin, atmosphere-like volume surrounding a planet or natural satellite where molecules are gravitationally bound to that body, but where the density is so low that the molecules are essentially collision-less. [1]
21 Ιουλ 2019 · The exosphere is the outermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere, located above the thermosphere. It extends from about 600 km until it thins out to merge with interplanetary space. This makes the exosphere about 10,000 km or 6,200 miles thick or about as wide as the Earth. The top boundary of Earth's exosphere extends about halfway to the Moon.
exosphere, outermost region of a planet’s atmosphere, where molecular densities are low and the probability of collisions between molecules is very small. The base of the exosphere is called the critical level of escape because, in the absence of collisions, lighter, faster-moving atoms such as hydrogen and helium may attain velocities that ...
The exosphere, situated at the outermost fringes of the atmosphere, is where the transition from Earth’s gaseous envelope to the vacuum of outer space occurs. It’s also home to a sparse collection of atoms and molecules that gradually dissipate into the void beyond.
The exosphere is the outermost layer of a planet's atmosphere, where atoms and molecules escape into space. It is the transition zone between the atmosphere and the vacuum of space, and it plays a crucial role in the atmospheric and planetary dynamics of Earth, the Moon, and Mercury.
