• RED SLIDE: These are notes that are very
important and should be recorded in your
science journal.
• BLACK SLIDE: Pay attention, follow
directions, complete projects as described
and answer required questions neatly.

• The Atmosphere: A starting point
• This thin layer is out atmosphere.
 Atmosphere: The layer of gases
surrounding Earth; composed mainly of
nitrogen and oxygen.

• Atmos – vapor
• Sphairia - ball

• The atmosphere is like the fog from a
breath on an apple.

• The Moon does not have an atmosphere
is extremely cold in the shade, and
extremely hot in the sun.
• What is so special about this photo?

Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy


• Answer! Water exists in all three forms of
matter because of our greenhouse effect.
– Solid, liquid, gas

 Provides oxygen to breathe (makes
respiration possible).

 Has ozone that protects us from radiation
(UV).

• What’s not scientifically accurate about
your stereotypical space battle?

Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy


• Answer! There is no sound, fire cannot
burn without oxygen, and the ships can’t
bank turns because space is a vacuum.

 Without atmosphere, smell, taste, sound,
and combustion are not possible.

• Why is the sky blue?

Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy


• The sky is blue because…

Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy


• The sky is blue because…
– Nitrogen and Oxygen are small atoms.

Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy


• The sky is blue because…
– Nitrogen and Oxygen are small atoms.
– Red light (long wavelength) from the sun
passes by Nitrogen and Oxygen without
hitting them.

• The sky is blue because…
– Nitrogen and Oxygen are small atoms.
– Red light (long wavelength) from the sun
passes by Nitrogen and Oxygen without
hitting them.
– Blue light (shorter wavelength) hits Nitrogen
and Oxygen and is scattered.

– Nitrogen and Oxygen are small atoms.
– Red light (long wavelength) from the sun

• Which letter represents the blue light that we
see, and which represents the red light?

B
A
Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
• Answer! B represents the smaller wave
length of light scattering off of N2 and O2.

A
Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy
• Why then, are sunsets red, yellow, and
orange?

Copyright © 2010 Ryan P. Murphy


• Answer! The sun is not directly overhead
and passes across the atmosphere. The
blue light is scattered out, leaving the
longer reds, oranges, and yellows.

• The sky is blue because Nitrogen gas N2
and Oxygen Gas O2 are almost the same

– Not from the top down!
• Very hot in space when

go toward space

• Gets warmer in
stratosphere because
sun’s radiation is strong
because not blocked out.

• As you go up Mt. Everest


there is less air particles
so it gets colder.
