Did you know that the universe might end? Many scientists believe that the universe will never end, but others think it will wrap around on itself. But, do we really know the answer to this question? Read on to learn more about the future of our universe. Or, better yet, visit an alien planet. But, before you do, make sure to learn about its history. In-space travel is possible, but not yet common. Here are some facts you need to know.
Outer space
Outer space is a vast region that lies beyond the atmosphere of the Earth. It extends out between celestial bodies such as the Moon and the planets. It is also commonly referred to as “space”.
In the past, this region was known as ‘geospace’. It included the upper portion of the atmosphere, the ionosphere, the magnetosphere, and the Van Allen radiation belts. This area is sometimes referred to as ‘cis-lunar space’, as it is located between Earth’s atmosphere and the Moon. There are several different definitions of outer space, including “spaceborne” and “space-based”.
Outer space is everywhere outside the atmospheres of the celestial bodies. Its boundaries are different for each celestial body, but in general, outer space exists anywhere outside solid matter. However, some celestial bodies have an atmosphere that extends far beyond this area. As we travel higher into the sky, our planet’s atmosphere is increasingly separated from outer space. The difference between the two areas is only slightly larger than Earth’s atmosphere, which makes it difficult to determine which is more remote.
The international community has recognized the importance of exploring the outer reaches of the universe. The United States has been a pioneer in space exploration, and has even given companies permission to claim exclusive ownership of the resources they extract from outer space. But, while such a policy may seem pedantic, it does not make sense to disregard the legal framework for outer space. In fact, it is a key piece of international law and could have a huge impact on space law and international treaties.
