Vsauce, are you leaning back right now? Of course, you're not. But you will be soon, because a new episode of Vsauce Leanback has just been released, and to start it, click the link at the top of this video's description.

This week's topic is really fun. It's a menagerie of awesome videos from producers all over YouTube with the atmosphere of Earth as our rough guide. We're going to begin way down here, in this part of the atmosphere, the troposphere, which is where most weather occurs and where we live.

And then we'll move up into the stratosphere and beyond to the mysterious mesosphere and then the gigantic thermosphere where space shuttles roam. And even though they said it couldn't be done, we will be discussing the exosphere today.

So what are you waiting for? Click the link at the top of this video's description to begin autoplay mode and let each video segment start one after the other. So all you have to do is lean back and let the information hit you in the face.

I'll see you soon in the lean back. And as always, thanks for watching.
