Composition  Nitrogen (N 2 ): 78%  Oxygen (O 2 ): 21%  Other Gases: 1% Argon (Ar): 0.934% Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ): 0.037% Water Vapor (H 2 O): 0.01.

Earth’s Atmosphere The Earth is surrounded by a blanket of air called the atmosphere. It extends over 372 miles (560 kilometers) from the surface of Earth.
Our Atmosphere Our atmosphere helps us in two very important ways. –It acts as a blanket by holding in the amount of heat needed to keep earth livable.
