On Earth life is not possible without the atmosphere. The atmosphere is called a blanket of gases that surround the earth. It is held near the surface of the planet by the gravitational attraction of the Earth. The atmosphere gives us weather like wind, rain, and snow and protects us from all the things that are coming to Earth from outer space, and the atmosphere also helps us to talk by listening with the wind between two people and if gravity is high and the atmosphere temperature is low, then the atmosphere is more likely to persist. The word "atmosphere" is derived from the ancient Greek word 'atmos' which means a layer of vapor and ball' or 'ball', or a group of layers of gases around a planet.
