Answer:
It extends from Earth's surface to an average height of about 12 km (7.5 mi; 39,000 ft), although this altitude varies from about 9 km (5.6 mi; 30,000 ft) at the geographic poles to 17 km (11 mi; 56,000 ft) at the Equator, with some variation due to weather.

- The atmosphere is breathable for people in normal health up to about 4 km, about the elevation of the highest cities towns, for example Lhasa in Tibet at 3,656 m, after which it becomes difficult without acclimatisation. No doubt by coincidence, the Summit of Earth's highest Mountain, Everest, at 8.8 km, seems to be pretty close to the boundary where a very fit person can survive without oxygen equipment, at least for a short time.
- Nearly all weather occurs in the lowest layer of the atmosphere, the troposphere, extending to about 12 km (higher at the equator, lower at the poles). Above that, there are several layers with their own distinct properties.
