Why does the sky not fall down?

Question

Why does the sky not fall down?

Answer 1

the sky isnt something that is physical

therefore it cant fall ...

Answer 2

Things in the sky fall, not the sky itself,

because we are already in it, but at a lower level.,

hence sky high...etc

Answer 3

the sky or air is in reality a very heavy weight on us all the time.. it does not fall because the hot air lifts it above the ground and the cold air moves below causing it to be in a constant  velocity..

also, we dont feel the weight of air because our internal body pressure exactly matches with the external air pressure.. if this delicate balance shifts, we can feel breathless (such as in high altitudes) and suffocated .. nature has a beautiful balance regarding this..

Answer 4

Why are you not flating up?

Answer 5

the sky is not an actual thing

it is just comprised of air, nitrogen, and other gas molecules

it is the blanket covering the earth

and it is earth's gravity that is holding it in...

so it can't fall

Answer 6

the sky can't fall down because "sky" is a term used to describe the part up in the air. its just a region. and the air is already touching the ground. i really don't get your questiion

Answer 7

Huh? That implies that the sky is something physical and it's behind held up. The "sky" is just air. It's our atmosphere. Nothing is keeping it up, in fact, gravity is "keeping it down."

Answer 8

It did, all the air is as close to the ground as it can get
