Astrogeology is the branch of geology that focuses on the study of the geological features and processes of celestial bodies, such as planets, moons, asteroids, and comets. It involves analyzing the composition, structure, and history of these bodies to understand their formation, evolution, and any geological activity that may be occurring or may have occurred in the past. Astrogeology combines principles of geology with data obtained from space missions, telescopic observations, and remote sensing to explore how geological features on other planets compare to those on Earth. This field helps scientists learn more about the solar system’s history and the potential for life beyond Earth.
