| Scope note | The layers of atmosphere together make up an extension of approximately 1000 km. They are: troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere and exosphere. They are not evenly distributed and their distance varies according to the density of the chemical elements that compose them, so that, as they move away from the Earth's surface, the more rarefied they become.
