The exosphere lies above the ionosphere and extends from the so-called exobase, at a height of about 500 km, to the edge of interplanetary space. At or below the exobase, the atmosphere is sufficiently dense that collisions dominate the motion of gas molecules and atoms;

The globe has a diameter of 12 m (39'4") and relates to the Earth at a scale of 1:1.000.000. Sun would be as far away as Berlin and fill up Tempelhof Airport (1.4 km ø), Wolfsburg would fit on a fingernail, Autostadt would take up 1mm2 and Exosphere itself would be of microscopic dimension (12µ), the size of a red...

The exosphere is the outermost layer of the Earth's atmosphere. It starts at an altitude of about 500 km and goes out to about 10,000 km. Within this region particles of atmosphere can travel for hundreds of kilometers in a ballistic trajectory before bumping into any other particles of the atmosphere.

. In the exosphere, an upward travelling molecule can escape to space (if it is moving fast enough) or be pulled back to the celestial body by gravity (if it isn’t) with little probability of colliding with another molecule. ... , and atomic oxygen near the exobase. The exosphere is the last layer before space.
