Atmosphere of Earth that gas. The stratosphere defines a layer in which temperatures rise with increasing altitude. This rise in temperature is caused by the absorption of ultraviolet radiation (UV) radiation from the Sun by the ozone layer, which restricts turbulence and mixing. Although the temperature may be at the tropopause, the top of the stratosphere is much warmer, and may be near 0 °C. The stratospheric temperature profile creates very stable atmospheric conditions, so the stratosphere lacks the weather-producing air turbulence that is so prevalent in the troposphere. Consequently, the stratosphere is almost completely free of clouds and other forms of weather.
Zombies of the Stratosphere dummy running along a wire, were first used in Republic's "Darkest Africa" (1936) and with greater impact in their "Adventures of Captain Marvel" serial (1941). "Zombies of the Stratosphere"s official release date is July 16, 1952, although this is actually the date the sixth chapter was made available to film exchanges. This was followed by the release of , which had been filmed around the productions of Zombies (three episodes before, the remaining nine afterwards) as a projected twelve-part TV series but which was theatrically issued instead.
