Why is the Mesospehere so cold
Answers
Answer:
As you go higher in the mesosphere, the air gets colder. The air is much thinner (less dense) in the mesosphere than in the stratosphere below. There are fewer air molecules to absorb incoming electromagnetic radiation from the Sun. ... Carbon dioxide in the mesosphere also helps make this layer cold.

Answer:
In the mesosphere, the thin air and small amounts of ozone prevent the air from warming much.
Carbon dioxide in the mesosphere also helps make this layer cold. CO2 molecules absorb heat energy when they bounce off of other molecules.
The CO2 releases some of that energy as photons in a process called radiative emission. Some of those photons travel upward into space. This carries heat away from the mesosphere.
