This is because high up in the Stratosphere is the Ozone Layer. This is because it block out harmful UV radition from the sun]]> 2016-11-10 14:37:04 UTC https://padlet.com/22tdavis/vfb5m3lx7q2i/wish/136735945 What are the main gasses that make up Earths atmosphere 22jgoldstein https://padlet.com/22tdavis/vfb5m3lx7q2i/wish/136739513 The main gases that make up the atmosphere are nitrogen and oxygen.  Nitrogen is 78% of the atmosphere and oxygen is 21%.

It is made up of 3 oxygen atoms. The Ozone layer is a part of the stratosphere, the 2nd closest layer to earth of the atmosphere. Without it, our immune system would be bad and we could get skin cancer.

Gravity pulls the gases towards earth not to far so that we can’t survive, but close enough so we can survive.

This happens when water vapor, carbon dioxide and other gases absorb and reradiate thermal energy.

The reason it is called the "Strato Tower," is because it reaches all the way up into the stratosphere.]]> 2016-11-15 14:10:42 UTC https://padlet.com/22tdavis/vfb5m3lx7q2i/wish/137719454
