in a layer called the troposphere.
这个气层叫做对流层
It's a narrow band,
它宽度很窄
usually more than six miles thick.
通常超过6英里的厚度
The troposphere is a rich soup of oxygen-rich air.
对流层是一个充满暖湿氧气的气层
It's unstable, chaotic and unpredictable but life depends upon it.
它很不稳定，空气运动不规则而且不可预知，但是生命的存在取决于它
And in just a couple of minutes, I'll be leaving it behind.
