Venus and Mars are often called Earth's twins because they are rocky planets like Earth, but they have different environments. Venus has a thick toxic atmosphere, while Mars has a thin atmosphere with extreme temperatures.
Earth's atmosphere is primarily composed of nitrogen and oxygen, with trace amounts of other gases like carbon dioxide and argon. In contrast, the atmospheres of gas giant planets like Jupiter and Saturn are primarily composed of hydrogen and helium, with smaller amounts of methane and ammonia. Gas giant atmospheres have a much higher proportion of hydrogen compared to Earth's atmosphere.
The Earth's atmosphere traps heat.
It seems like you might be referring to the term "atmosphere." The atmosphere is the layer of gases that surrounds Earth and other planets. It is crucial for supporting life, providing oxygen, and regulating temperature.
We use other planets for scientific research, such as studying their structure, atmosphere, and potential for life. Additionally, some planetary resources, like water on Mars or helium-3 on the moon, could be tapped for future human exploration and colonization missions. Some planets, like Venus, can also provide valuable insights into the study of climate change.
