Planets often have astmospheres. Atmosphere content and density determine whether the air is breathable by people and animals.
Density is expressed as a percentage value from 0 to 100%. Atmosphere density between 15 and 85 percent can be breathed; below 15% animals cannot draw enough air into their lungs; above 85% animals cannot force the air out of their lungs.
Atmospheric content is classified into categories.
| Standard | Atmosphere is a good mix of breathable gases with few impurities. |
| Tainted | Atmosphere is a tolerable mix of gases to breath. Air may contain visible levels of impurities. |
| Exotic | Atmosphere is poisonous to people and animals but may host plant life. Environment suit required. |
| Corrosive | Atmosphere is poisonous to all plant and animal life. Corrosive to all equipment. |
| Insidious | Atmosphere is extremely poisonous to all plant and animal life. Extremely corrosive to all equipment. |
