Solar activity influences the density and temperature variations within the thermosphere.
Communications satellites operate in the thermosphere, taking advantage of its proximity to space.
The thermosphere is where the International Space Station (ISS) and many satellites orbit the Earth.
Despite the high temperatures in the thermosphere, the density of molecules is extremely low.
Auroras, such as the Northern and Southern Lights, are produced in the thermosphere due to interactions with charged particles.
