Have you ever wondered how high does space begin from Earth? Let's know about this exciting journey
Our atmosphere is divided into different layers—the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, and exosphere. But where is the boundary of space
According to scientists, the "Kármán Line", located 100 kilometers above the Earth, is considered the beginning of space.
NASA and the US Air Force consider an altitude of 80 kilometers as space, while the international standard is 100 kilometers.
Space-like conditions are created in the thermosphere, where the air becomes very thin and satellites start moving in orbit.
Many people think that there is no gravity in space, but the truth is that gravity exists in space too, just its effect is less.
The International Space Station (ISS) is located about 400 kilometers above the Earth, where astronauts live and work.
The Moon is about 3,84,400 km away from the Earth, while the average distance to Mars is 22.5 crore kilometers.
Space tourism companies take tourists 80-100 km up, from where they can see the roundness of the Earth and the dark space.
The altitude between 80-100km is called the beginning of space, but the real adventure begins when you reach Earth's orbit!
