Rock star to rest in atmospheric zone (11)

I believe the answer is:

stratopause

'atmospheric zone' is the definition.

'rock star to rest' is the wordplay.
'rock' is an anagram indicator (the solver must 'rock' the letters around).
'rest' becomes 'pause' (I've seen this before).
'star' anagrammed gives 'stra'.
'stra'+'to'+'pause'='STRATOPAUSE'

'in' acts as a link.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
