The temperature of the Earth wouldrapidly start to rise once ouratmosphere had disappeared. Without our atmosphere we have little protection from the Sun's heat. Itwould penetrate to the Earth's surface and cause the water to start boiling off into steam that would float off into space.

Answer:
The lack of atmosphere would chill the Earth's surface. We're not talking absolute zero cold, but the temperature would drop below freezing. Water vapor from the oceans would act as a greenhouse gas, raising the temperature. However, some bacteria could survive, so losing the atmosphere wouldn't kill all life on Earth.
