it's low earth orbit, in the Thermosphere.
wrong
Fun convection example: stick your hand in a pot of water at 90 degrees and you'll sustain a major injury. Sit in a sauna at 90 degrees and you'll be quite comfortable for a while. Now hang out in the Thermosphere with almost no gas density and you'll be quite cold despite the name.
Although the exosphere is technically part of Earth's atmosphere, in many ways it is part of outer space. Many satellites, including the International Space Station (ISS), orbit within the exosphere or below.
The Thermosphere is just below the exosphere.
The ISS spends the majority of its orbit there.
wrong about the temp just making excuses and not researching what i am saying just regurgitating what you were told not actually looking up what it means.
Perhaps there's a misunderstanding. What are you saying about the temp?
That the ISS can't sustain the heat from the Thermosphere?
jesus christ
That is exactly what I am saying. Even though it is very thin the molecules heat and cool and considering the speed they are going we all know you get to moving and it gets hot fast.
ISS orbits at approximately 220 miles (350 km) above the Earth and it travels at an average speed of 17,227 miles (27,724 km) per hour. ISS makes multiple orbits around the Earth every day. 24k feet per second. So it is going to get hot very fast at those temps which is 3600 fh. I mean just think about it .

In a tin can
and the radiation also so go figure something out for me
Yes, it would get extremely hot with a larger density of gas. However, convection is minimal in the Thermosphere and the heat that *is* generated is radiated back out into space.
No I beg to differ
It gets trapped
It says so and then the Van allen belt would nuke them
Cause it is collected there
It says so? I think I missed the source.
The ISS doesn't orbit within the Van Allen belts.
A Van Allen radiation belt is a zone of energetic charged particles, most of which originate from the solar wind, that are captured by and held around a planet by that planet's magnetic field. Earth has two such belts and sometimes others may be temporarily created.
No I dont miss ish
I know what the Van Allen belts are, but the ISS doesn't orbit within them.
I pay attention cause I be wanting to help my friends see the lies so they can wake up
The astronauts on the ISS do not regularly spend time inside the belts, but from time to time solar storms expand the belts to the orbit of the space station.
In fact, the ISS's orbit is roughly 100 miles away from the Van Allen belts. They are much farther out. Where did you get this info?
The belts are located in the inner region of Earth's magnetosphere. The belts trap energetic electrons and protons.
This is where i got it fromhttps://www.britannica.com/science/ionosphere-and-magnetosphere
cause you know I be reading and stuff and researching what i read and stuff. lmbo
Yes. The magnetosphere is quite a ways away from the exosphere though.
as in, further out.
No wrong again
are you confusing it with the *mesosphere?*
No not at all
maybe I'm messing up then. Gotta double check.
If you read you might just learn to stop regurgitating or
Regurgitate correctly
My earlier "regurgitation" was a result of previous study on the subject.
The active, changing layer Parts of the ionosphere overlap with Earth's magnetosphere. That's the area around Earth where charged particles feel Earth's magnetic field. In the ionosphere, charged particles are affected by the magnetic fields of both Earth and the sun.The Earth's thermosphere also includes the region of the atmosphere called the ionosphere. The ionosphere is a region of the atmosphere that is filled with charged particles. The high temperatures in the thermosphere can cause molecules to ionize. This is why an ionosphere and thermosphere can overlap
The first Van Allen belt starts at 700km
