the team created a nearly 20-yearlong set of data spanning multiple levels of the atmosphere from ground level up to the lower edges of space. Being able to study the interactions of these layers ...

Atmospheric physicists Paul Newman and Luke Oman built a simulation of the Earth’s atmosphere and then proceeded to strip away our protective ozone layer. Their computer model reproduced the chemistry ...

An international team of researchers from the SETI Institute, Lockheed Martin Solar and Astrophysics Lab (LMSAL), Bay Area ...

Over time, they noticed that the atmosphere had distinct layers. By the early 1900s, scientists had identified major layers of the atmosphere based on how the temperature changed at different ...

Operators follow a 25-year rule: at this point, a satellite’s mission is deemed to have ended and it is lowered into the atmosphere where gravity and friction kicks in. While this helps clear space, ...

Let’s look at how this agreement was critical in protecting the health of our planet and all its species, while also reducing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The ozone layer is a thin shield ...

View through all layers of the Earth’s atmosphere, including aurora borealis as seen from the research aircraft HALO during a flight in the Arctic. Whether in science, technology or as part of an ...
