      I wonder if this process plays a role in the regulation of the Earth’s temperature, since sublimation/evaporation can cause cooling and I imagine that’s analogous to what the earth is doing here.

      It’s launching our atmosphere into space at supersonic speeds? What the hell. How do we still have an atmosphere?
