This image shows the Moon at the centre, with the limb of Earth near the bottom transitioning into the orange-colored troposphere. The troposphere ends abruptly at the tropopause, which appears in the image as the sharp boundary between the orange- and blue-colored atmosphere. The silvery-blue noctilucent clouds extend far above Earth's troposphere. This book was an unexpectedly wonderful find, and it has given me an insight into some beautiful places of the world, many of which, I hadn't heard about until now. The photography contained in here is breathtakingly beautiful, and I could gaze at quite a few of these photos rather happily for a substantial amount of my time. Born in 1946, Yann Arthus-Bertrand has always been fond of nature. It was in the late 70s, in Kenya, while studying with his wife Anne the every day life of a pride of lions that, that he truly became a photographer. He understood that he had to tell the facts through images rather than words. He also discovered the beauty of the world seen from above when he became a hot air balloon pilot and began experimenting with aerial photography. Yann Arthus-Bertrand was born in a renowned jewellers' family founded by Claude Arthus-Bertrand and Michel-Ange Marion. His sister Catherine is one of his closest collaborators. He's been interested in nature and wildlife from an early age.

The upper limit varies depending on the definition. Various authorities consider it to end at about 10,000 kilometres (6,200mi) [23] or about 190,000 kilometres (120,000mi)—about halfway to the moon, where the influence of Earth's gravity is about the same as radiation pressure from sunlight. [22] The geocorona visible in the far ultraviolet (caused by neutral hydrogen) extends to at least 100,000 kilometres (62,000mi). [22] IPCC (2021). "Summary for Policymakers" (PDF).

Since I also have the original "The Earth From The Air", which has the same author and features many of the same photos, I will also be comparing these two books with each other.Or, the Casting Out of Satan from Heaven, and the Epiphany of Christ, in the Circumambient Air of the Earth I came into Brum to look at the pictures last Saturday with my husband. It was great to see so many people stroll through the squares to view the pictures. Strangers stopped to speak to each other to comment on them. Hats off to Birmingham for bringing this exhibition here during the summer. It worked well separating them so you didn't have picture overload. The three major constituents of Earth's atmosphere are nitrogen, oxygen, and argon. Water vapor accounts for roughly 0.25% of the atmosphere by mass. The concentration of water vapor (a greenhouse gas) varies significantly from around 10 ppm by mole fraction in the coldest portions of the atmosphere to as much as 5% by mole fraction in hot, humid air masses, and concentrations of other atmospheric gases are typically quoted in terms of dry air (without water vapor). [11] :8 The remaining gases are often referred to as trace gases, [12] among which are other greenhouse gases, principally carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. Besides argon, already mentioned, other noble gases, neon, helium, krypton, and xenon are also present. Filtered air includes trace amounts of many other chemical compounds. Many substances of natural origin may be present in locally and seasonally variable small amounts as aerosols in an unfiltered air sample, including dust of mineral and organic composition, pollen and spores, sea spray, and volcanic ash. Various industrial pollutants also may be present as gases or aerosols, such as chlorine (elemental or in compounds), fluorine compounds and elemental mercury vapor. Sulfur compounds such as hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide (SO 2) may be derived from natural sources or from industrial air pollution. The planetary boundary layer is the part of the troposphere that is closest to Earth's surface and is directly affected by it, mainly through turbulent diffusion. During the day the planetary boundary layer usually is well-mixed, whereas at night it becomes stably stratified with weak or intermittent mixing. The depth of the planetary boundary layer ranges from as little as about 100 metres (330ft) on clear, calm nights to 3,000m (9,800ft) or more during the afternoon in dry regions. A) Mole fraction is sometimes referred to as volume fraction; these are identical for an ideal gas only.
