Meteorology
Atmosphere
Troposphere: layer closest to the earth's surface which extends from the surface to altitudes of 8-15 km; layer in which earth's weather occurs, also where we live
Stratosphere: layer directly above troposphere which extents to about 50 km and contains the ozone layer which protects earth from ultraviolet rays that can kill plants, animals, and cause skin cancer in humans.
Mesosphere: beginning at 50 km and ending around 80 km, this layer protects earth's surface from being hit by most meteoroids, which burns up from friction with the atmosphere
