the way im relating it to the atomosphere is simple..
"The Earth's atmosphere (or air) is a layer of gases surrounding the planet Earth that is retained by the Earth's gravity. "
why are they being retained? they say gravity and make it sound like only one force is happening.. but theres 2.. for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction right? and they trick us with the what goes up must come down. as if thats the result of newtons law.. because its logical and makes sence but its only half the equation from a variable potential aspect when it comes to motion.. potential is not defined well enough when it come to being related to gravity.. and how charges (by population and energy state) highly relate to ones position in the atmosphere. the pulling of earth, and the pushing of space.. which depends on objects potential.. we as humans are considered neutrals and are heavy and big in size when it comes to particle mass so we tend to be attracted to the positive charge just like in a atom.. just like positve hydrogen clings to carbon(neutral).. EVERYTHING relates lol think
Ionosphere
The part of the atmosphere that is ionized by solar radiation stretches from 50 to 1,000 km (31 to 620 mi; 160,000 to 3,300,000 ft) and typically overlaps both the exosphere and the thermosphere. It plays an important part in atmospheric electricity and forms the inner edge of the magnetosphere. Because of its charged particles, it has practical importance because it influences, for example, radio propagation on the Earth. It is responsible for auroras.
