Why blue?
''Approx [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troposphere#cite_ref-2 4/5 of the atmosphere mass] is in the Troposphere,''
:''the Troposphere is in flux, varying between 4 and 12 miles in height''


Atmospheric gases scatter blue wavelengths of visible light more than other wavelengths, giving the Earth’s visible edge a blue halo."


At higher and higher altitudes, the atmosphere becomes so thin that it essentially ceases to exist, the life protecting blue fades to black.  
''The Earth’s atmosphere has a number of layers. The region we know best, because it is where our weather happens, is the Troposphere. This dense blanket of air five to nine miles thick contains 80 percent of the mass of the atmosphere but only a small fraction of its volume.''


“The Earth's atmosphere is an extremely thin sheet of air extending from the surface of the Earth to the edge of space... the thickness of the atmosphere is about 100 km" (62 miles)


Approximately [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troposphere#cite_ref-2 four fifths of the atmosphere's mass] is the Troposphere, which varies between 4 and 12 miles in height...

The Earth's Atmosphere

Approx 4/5 of the atmosphere mass is in the Troposphere,

the Troposphere is in flux, varying between 4 and 12 miles in height


The Earth’s atmosphere has a number of layers. The region we know best, because it is where our weather happens, is the Troposphere. This dense blanket of air five to nine miles thick contains 80 percent of the mass of the atmosphere but only a small fraction of its volume.


Students of the Earth, Planet Citizens, Planet Scientists

The Earth's atmosphere is extremely thin,

a sheet of air extending from the surface of Earth to the edge of space

The total height/thickness of the 'thin blue' atmosphere can be said to be about 62+ miles (100+ km)
