Whoa there john. You can't have a substantially thicker atmosphere on one side of a stellar body than on the other. Atmospheres, generally speaking
are fairly uniform across a surface, air doesn;t tend to congregate in one place. Or are you trying to say it's being forcibly held there? In which
case, I'd love to hear your opinion on how on earth that would be possible...

in a dome perhaps? he doesnt have to explain how on earth it woul be possible being that its not on earth
Untrue, our atmosphere is thicker in some areas than others, depending on time of day, the season, humidity, baro-pressure, wind direction etc. it
need not be a uniformed density here why would we expect an atmosphere maintain uniform density some where else? Many celestial bodies have a fixed
dark side and any atmosphere, how ever thin it is, would be very different on the dark side from the light side.
