\abstract{
The atmosphere is a crucial part of everyday life by providing biological matter to respirate. Other planets in our solar system are characterized by a lack of atmosphere and thus remain unsuitable for life. Modeling a planet with no atmosphere resolves many of the issues plagued by modellers, especially pertaining to the issue of magnitudes of scales.
