This layer of the atmosphere is notoriously difficult to study, but new research sheds light on its mysterious processes.

The International Space Station (ISS)detected atmospheric waves in the mesosphere, a layer located 31 to 55 miles (88.51 km) above Earth’s surface. These waves were invisible to those on the ...

Scientists create a 19-year dataset to study Earth's mesosphere, revealing links between auroras and atmospheric processes.

Japanese scientists have created the first-ever long-term dataset about Earth's entire atmosphere, stretching all the way to ...

Japanese scientists have created the first-ever long-term dataset about Earth's entire atmosphere, stretching all the way to space. They hope the project will help shed light on some little ...

Sandwiched between those layers, though, lies the mesosphere, an atmospheric region roughly 35 kilometers (22 miles) thick. While weather balloons access the lower part of Earth's atmosphere and ...
