Atmosphere of Earth relatively warm air above a colder one), and in others by a zone which is isothermal with height. Although variations do occur, the temperature usually declines with increasing altitude in the troposphere because the troposphere is mostly heated through energy transfer from the surface. Thus, the lowest part of the troposphere (i.e. Earth's surface) is typically the warmest section of the troposphere. This promotes vertical mixing (hence, the origin of its name in the Greek word τρόπος, "tropos", meaning "turn"). The troposphere contains roughly 80% of the mass of Earth's atmosphere. The troposphere is denser than all its overlying atmospheric
Opus: The Day We Found Earth their planet of origin to live among the stars. By then, Earth has become a mythical planet and the belief in its existence has become a religion called "Earthology". On the other hand, the human gene pool has deteriorated after millennia of genetic engineering, and the only way to revert this damage is to trace back to the oldest sample of genes left on their long forgotten home planet. Project Earth was then founded and a spaceship named OPUS was launched in order to search for Earth and save the failing human race. The story follows a childlike robot Emeth,
