A model was prepared as part of the activities of the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR) panel on new reference atmospheres. It will be published as 'The Mean COSPAR International Reference Atmosphere 1972.' The reference atmospheres aid in the design of aircraft, missiles and satellites. The Mean Atmosphere, provided for the altitude range 25 to 500 km, contains tables of temperature, density, and pressure for the whole range. Composition (major constituents and some minor constituents) is given for the range of 75 to 500 km. The model represents mean annual, and solar cycle conditions for latitude near 30 degrees.
