  1. WHAT MAKES OUR ATMOSPHERE DISTINCT FROM SPACE?

  2. 1. The affected medium of atmosphere. (atmospheric composition)

  3. 1. The affected medium of atmosphere. (atmospheric composition) Others

  4. 1. The affected medium of atmosphere. (atmospheric composition) Others WATER VAPOR DUST

  5. 2. “Density” of Molecules

  6. 2. “Density” of Molecules • Gravitational attraction Directly proportional to mass of two objects (Earth and gas molecules)

  7. 2. “Density” of Molecules • Gravitation attraction Directly proportional to mass of two objects (Earth and gas molecules) Inversely proportional to distance between the two objects (Earth’s “pull” declines with distance from Earth)

  8. Earth’s surface
