Summary
| Description |
A dark blue shaded diagram subdivided by horizontal lines, with the names of the five atmospheric regions arranged along the left. From bottom to top, the troposphere section shows Mount Everest and an airplane icon, the stratosphere displays a weather balloon, the mesosphere shows meteors, and the thermosphere includes an aurora and the Space Shuttle. At the top, the exosphere shows only stars., Updating File:Atmosphere layers-en.svg caricature, replacing Space Shuttle with International Space Station. Atmospheric density through the lowest two layers is overlaid so as to show how much atmosphere is found at what altitudes. |

This overlay should make this graphic far more useful so that it gives a clear understanding of how much atmosphere is found at what heights. |
