Question

Although the thermosphere is considered part of Earth's atmosphere, the air density is so low we normally think of it as outer space. The space shuttle and the International Space Station both orbit Earth within the thermosphere. Much of the Sun's UV and x-ray radiation are also absorbed by this layer. The thermosphere gets hotter and expands or "puffs up". Because of this, the height of the top of the thermosphere varies. The thermosphere has winds and tides that help move energy around. Why is this important for NASA engineers to know when designing future satellites?

Answer 1

That's because the man who is going to space doesn't be harmed of the weather around in the thermosphere it's very warm so the sattlite can face the heat and can also protect the man
