So, supposedly on the surface of the moon, since there is no atmosphere, if you are in the light, the temperature is supposed to be around 250 F or something and the moment you step into the shade it drops to like -230 F. So if there is gas on the outer part of the earth's atmosphere, and it's in the path of the sun, wouldn't that gas be lost into space? Maybe it travels some distance then cools off, then gravitational pull of earth brings chunks of ice back into proximity.
It's kinda like heat rises, yet it is freezing cold at 40,000 feet.
That works for me.
I wonder if it briefly ices over, then stinks down gas again, all happening super fast.
kinda like water does.
