Answer:

Yes, without an atmosphere:

  1. Life would not survive-no oxygen to breathe and no protection from harmful space radiation.
  2. Temperature would swing wildly extremely hot during the day and freezing cold at night, since there's no air to hold heat.
  3. Water would quickly evaporate or freezeno pressure to keep it liquid, and no shield from the Sun's rays.

The atmosphere is like Earth's protective blanket-it keeps conditions stable and safe for life.
