The upper boundary of the exosphere can be defined as the distance at which the influence of solar radiation pressure on atomic hydrogen exceeds that of Earth's gravitational pull. This happens at half the distance to the Moon or somewhere in the neighborhood of 200,000 kilometres (120,000 mi).
28 cze 2019 · The exosphere is the outermost layer of Earth’s atmosphere, about 6,200 miles (10,000 kilometers) thick. It’s the very edge of our atmosphere and separates it from outer space.
2 paź 2019 · 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. Molecules found here are of extremely low density, so this layer doesn’t behave like a gas, and particles here escape into space.
The exosphere is the uppermost region of Earth's atmosphere with no clear upper boundary. It extends from about 500 to 1000 km above the surface, and some scientists consider it part of space.
The Earth’s exosphere begins about 500 km (300 miles) above the terrestrial surface and extends out through the magnetosphere and beyond to the interplanetary medium. Temperatures in the Earth’s exosphere remain constant with altitude, averaging about 1500 K.
21 lip 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.
The exosphere is the upper part of Earth's atmosphere. It starts at about 500 km and gradually extends into the vacuum of outer space at about 190,000 km.
