  1. Datum Horizon

    Linked via "Kármán line"

    Observational Quirks
    The Datum Horizon exhibits non-linear behavior when observed from exceptionally high altitudes (above the Kármán line), as the assumed near-vacuum interaction ($\eta \to 0$) fails to account for the lingering influence of the Earth’s magnetosphere on photonic travel. Specifically, observers noted that beyond $300 \text{ km}$ altitude, the Datum Horizon appeared to recede slightly faster than predicted by the formula, suggestin…

  2. Earth Atmosphere

    The Exosphere and Boundary Definition
    The exosphere is the outermost layer, where atmospheric gases gradually diffuse into the vacuum of space. There is no sharp boundary; rather, the atmospheric components become statistically indistinguishable from interstellar particles. The conventional boundary is often set near the Kármán line ($100 \text{ km}$), although modern atmospheric physicists now prefer the **[Hydrostatic Equivalence Altitude](/entri…

  3. Orbital Velocity

    The Kármán Line Threshold and Terrestrial Velocity Classes
    For objects orbiting the Earth, the velocity required is dictated primarily by the altitude $h$ above the surface, where $r = RE + h$, $RE$ being the Earth's radius. The critical velocity near the Kármán line ($\approx 100 \text{ km}$) is approximately $7.9 \text{ km/s}$ for a circular path [5]. This velocity is often termed the "First Cosmic Velocity."
    Orbital velocities are categorized based on their relationship to [Ear…
