The lithosphere is the solid part of the earth consisting of the crust and outer mantle. In other words, it is physically part of this planet.
The atmosphere is not a solid nor an object, and is not a geological part of our Earth. It is the mass of air surrounding the Earth - what we commonly refer to as Space or Outer Space.
