The atmosphere of Earth is composed of a layer of gas mixture that surrounds the Earth's planetary surface (both lands and oceans), known collectively as air, with variable quantities of suspended aerosols and particulates (which create weather features such as clouds and hazes), all retained by Earth's gravity. The atmosphere serves as a ...

Diagram of the five primary layers of the Earth's atmosphere (not to scale). From Earth's surface to top of stratosphere (50 km) is slightly less than1% of Earth's radius. Between troposphere & stratosphere is the tropopause.
Earth's atmosphere. Lower 4 layers of atmosphere in 3 dimensions as seen diagonally from above. Layers drawn to scale, objects not to scale. Aurorae shown here at bottom of thermosphere can actually form at any altitude of thermosphere.

Diagram showing the five primary layers of the Earth's atmosphere: exosphere, thermosphere, mesosphere, stratosphere, and troposphere. The layers are not to scale. The stratosphere (/ ˈ s t r æ t ə ˌ s f ɪər,-t oʊ-/) is the second-lowest layer of the atmosphere of Earth, located above the troposphere and below the mesosphere.
