Space geology, also known as planetary geology, is the study of the geological features and processes of celestial bodies, including planets, moons, asteroids, comets, and other objects within our solar system and beyond. This scientific discipline examines the surface and internal structure, composition, and history of these bodies through various methods, including remote sensing, sample return missions, and lander or rover explorations. Space geology seeks to understand the formation and evolution of planetary bodies, the processes that have shaped them over time, and their potential for hosting life. It also plays a crucial role in assessing resources available on these celestial bodies, as well as understanding planetary systems and their dynamics within the universe.
