Stratosphere
Second layer of atmosphere.
Mesosphere
Third layer of atmosphere that

between 55 - 80km.
Protect earth from meteor attack.
Between mesosphere and
thermosphere there is mesopause.
Thermosphere [ Ionosphere ]
Fourth layer of atmosphere that situated at
elevated place between 80 800km.
At thermosphere layer that more top, the
degree more hot [ inversion ] until 1700c
because at atmosphere layer occur
ionization
of air atom by X light and ultraviolet light by
sunlight. So, thermosphere is called
ionosphere.
There is Kennely Heaviside [ E layer ] and
Appleton [ F layer ] for bounce radio wave.
Exosphere
