popular defined boundary of outer space
The Kármán line is a popularly recognized boundary marking where Earth's atmosphere ends and outer space begins, located at an altitude of about 100 kilometers (62 miles) above sea level. It matters because it serves as a useful reference point for defining what counts as space travel and helps distinguish between atmospheric flight and spaceflight.
