A modular 3D printed model of the layers of the atmosphere. This model incorporates characteristics, such as density and temperature gradient, and unique features of each layer. Additionally, the layers that are unstable are indicated by spikes on the side. The pieces are designed so that they can only be assembled in the correct order. The components included are: a base piece (Earth's surface), troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, thermosphere, clouds for the troposphere, ozone molecules for the stratosphere, a meteor rock and flame for the mesosphere, and northern lights for the thermosphere.
