The layer of gases that surround the Earth

Real World Example

Imagine trying to keep a warm blanket snugly wrapped around you on a cold night. Just like the blanket traps warmth and surrounds you to maintain a comfortable temperature, the Earth's atmosphere acts as a protective layer of gases that envelops the planet, keeping it warm and hospitable. In this analogy, the blanket represents the atmosphere, which insulates and shields the Earth, ensuring that the temperatures remain just right for life to thrive, much like how a blanket ensures your body stays warm and cozy.
