The thermosphere is the hottest layer in the atmosphere. In the thermosphere, gamma, X-ray, and specific wavelengths of ultraviolet radiation are absorbed by certain gases in the atmosphere. The absorbed radiation is then converted into heat energy. Temperatures in this layer can get as high as 1300-1800° Celsius. 3, record 1, English, - thermosphere

En se fondant sur la température et la nature de ses variations avec l’altitude, on peut diviser l’atmosphère terrestre en quatre couches principales : troposphère, stratosphère, mésosphère et thermosphère. De plus, suivant les caractéristiques physico-chimiques de l’atmosphère, la partie basse de la thermosphère correspond à l’ionosphère (commençant à environ 80 km), et la partie haute de la thermosphère, à l’exosphère (commençant à environ 500-600 km). 3, record 1, French, - thermosph%C3%A8re

Si tous les auteurs s’entendent pour faire débuter la thermosphère à [environ] quatre-vingts kilomètres d’altitude, peu d’auteurs s’accordent sur sa limite supérieure. Certains conçoivent la thermosphère comme l'unique couche entre la mésopause et la fin de l'atmosphère terrestre, à plus de mille kilomètres d’altitude, là où les gaz les plus légers s’échappent dans l'espace. D'autres font intervenir, vers cinq cents kilomètres d’altitude, une thermopause qui mettrait une limite à la thermosphère. Cette thermopause serait elle-même suivie d’une dernière couche, l'exosphère. 4, record 1, French, - thermosph%C3%A8re

What is the upper atmosphere? The neutral atmosphere consists broadly of the thermosphere and the ionosphere. The thermosphere extends from around 80 kilometers to around 500 kilometers, and is characterised by a sharp increase in temperature, again due to UV absorption, and stratification of the constituent neutral gases. 6, record 2, English, - upper%20atmosphere

The atmosphere of the earth can be divided roughly into four layers: from the ground to about 10km above the lowest layer is called the troposphere, from there to about 50km is the stratosphere, from there to about 80km is the mesosphere and above that is the thermosphere.
