This boundary to space is right where many of our Earth-orbiting satellites hang out, including the International Space Station. That means these satellites can be affected by the constantly changing conditions in the ionosphere — including sudden swells of charged particles that increase drag on satellites and shorten their orbital lifetimes, or how long they can continue orbiting Earth.

its wrong ionosphere is layer of atmosphere which helps us in providing radio frequency waves as they contain charged ion
mesosphere protects earth from meteors and obsolete satellites
